I also find the Github process ackwards for contributions to other repos, not sure why Github does not allow a simple way of synchronization of forks. But as a committer you have a simpler process. You could also create PR from the repo directly, e.g. push to a new branch in the repo and create a PR within the same directory. This reduces the work for committers but still leaves the problem that contributors have to go through the steps you described. Maybe there is a simpler way, as this process seems quite popular but I don't know it.
