Thanks for turning in the SCA, I've reviewed and approved it. Keeping your
work in a BZR branch is likely the best approach, plain patches are a bit
cumbersome to handle and tend to bit-rot quickly...
It would not harm to also create a related bug report, marked as a "feature
request". That makes it easier to track the contribution (see the Wiki page
for instructions).
Unfortunately I can not comment on the patch itself, I leave this to the
developers subscribed to this list. But from an administrative point of view,
your patch is good to go :)
