The same thing happened when David O'Brien decided he didn't like the "Version required" line in his ports and removed them, before asking for consensus on -ports. Please conform to the rules as they are stated in the documentation until you get a consensus on -ports, and you make Satoshi agree to your changes. That said, I do agree that it seems the method you mentioned is more efficient (no longer have to head -2 patches/*-* to find out what patch patches which file), but what about conflicting files? I.e. src/Makefile.in and po/Makefile.in. Do we only use src_Makefile.in and po_Makefile.in in such cases, or do we force all patches to have the directories prepended? Just some thoughts; they seem like a good way to start a discussion on the topic.
