Actually, "dpkg -L" already works with multiple package arguments. ;-)

I can't make any promises (it depends on the nature of the patch),
but it sounds like a good idea.

The only gotcha I can think of to watch out for is combinations of -c
with other options, as in "dpkg-deb -c foo.deb --debug".  What is
already implemented for other dpkg command options might give a hint
for the expected convention; I haven't checked.

Thanks!
Jonathan
