I don't fully agree, but I see the point.

Personally, I just buffer up patches when I want to push and inbound's closed.  
Out of sight, out of mind temporarily is an easy enough way to avoid 
frustration for me.  YMMV.

Whatever the demerits of inbound, I don't think it's worth burning a bunch of 
someone's (or everyone's) time to act as tree-shepherd to merge patches over 
and mark bugs as fixed.  If a solution doesn't involve that, I could be 
receptive to it.  (Although, I think you significantly underplay the 
possibility of inbound/ourtree conflicts -- I remember them happening regularly 
when we had the TM tree.)
