The policy is: there is no policy.
If the given port maintainer wants to add a non-official patch to
provide extra functionality, he is free to do so. (Look at qmail ports.)
If a port maintainer does not want to have specific patch in his port,
he can reject it. (In the end, it would be him to support the patch over
future upgrades etc..)

Because watching a cg enhanced Legolas fire a flaming arrow into the
