Hi Felix.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Ideally not. It irks me a bit that patches have to go to a different
place because they belong to another platform than the "default". Or
that they have to go somewhere else altogether because they need to be
split into platforms.
It doesn't make much sense to me.
