I've developed a launchpadlib-based tool that does a report like this:

http://www2.bryceharrington.org:8080/X/Reports/desktop-bugs/patches.html
http://www2.bryceharrington.org:8080/X/Reports/

Some lessons learned from my use of this...

 * Knowing the age of the patch (and being able to sort by patch age) is quite handy. Recently added patches are high priorities for sponsoring work, while extremely old patches are priorities for triaging/bug cleanup work.

 * It is very helpful to see a report for patches on all packages a team is subscribed to, since it reveals patches on packages I care about but don't look at very often. You can already get a listing of bugs-with-patches for specific packages via the search tool.

 * I would *love* to be able to link to the patch itself from my report. Currently this doesn't seem to be feasible to do through launchpadlib. See bug #281476
