The "patch" option should be the number "1", because that is the most
likely option that you may have use for. The rest are not really used in
day-to-day bug reporting.
Having to always skim through lines to find "What was the number again for
the patch" is time consuming and tedious exercise. You have to move your
eyes quite a bit before you "see it":
> 1 d-i This bug is relevant to the development of debian-installer.
> 2 ipv6 This bug affects support for Internet Protocol version 6.
> 3 l10n This bug reports a localization/internationalization issue.
> 4 lfs This bug affects support for large files (over 2 gigabytes).
> 5 patch You are including a patch to fix this problem.
> 6 upstream This bug applies to the upstream part of the package.
> 7 none
Please reconsider.
