+1 from me too. I've dealt with a few patches going upstream, and I can see how it would be really nice to have a way of notating it in our trac. We might also have an option for "fixed in our version", as many times we will patch an spkg and simultaneously report it upstream. When we eventually get the upstream fix in an update, we delete our patch.
