I agree that automation of the bugsquad workflow is vastly helpful. In implementing this automation, please also preserve the ability for bugsquad to override the automated detection, and indicate the bug indeed has a patch, even if it ends up being in a format different than that expected (e.g. replacement graphic or audio artifact, inline patch pasted in bug comment, etc.). In the case of replacement artifacts, this might be as simple as editing the attachment to confirm it really *is* a patch. In the case of inline patches, it would be nice if it didn't requrie someone to extract the patch and resubmit it as an attachment or branch, but rather just add a tag or press a button.
