I'd prefer an open bug report in debbugs with the patch included.

Why? It's a commonly held belief that the best place to publish Debian's
(relevant) patches is in the upstream BTS.

I keep hearing this from Ubuntu, and yet the obvious solution to the problem
("stop doing so damn much") has apparently never been considered. It seems,
from my perspective, that doing a good job on a smaller subset of the free
software universe would be better than the current attempts. Scale over
time, don't try to do everything at once and then say "we didn't have enough
resources to do it properly".
