You'd still be sending the patch twice to wine-patches, and by that
logic, for _EVERY_ patch, not just ones that were rejected.

I think the idea at Wineconf was the best:
Submit patches to wine-patches
Patchwatcher does its voodoo magic
If patch is good -> wine-patches-approved
If patch fails -> wine-patches-rejected + e-mail to author

However, I think your idea has merit...if Dan would be willing, could
add a test e-mail, that doesn't spam everyone, for testing only on
patchwater. I.e., patch-test at kegel.com. Results would then join the
rest on the results page (or possibly just e-mailed back, but that
seems like more work for little gain.
