No, it really isn't.  Have you tried looking at the output?  It's not
going to do the right thing for the subject line here for example, never
mind any other cases.

One of the things I'd really expect that a frequent submitter of trivial
patches would be doing is to make an effort to improve the quality of
what is being sent.  If it's at the point where you're sending a lot of
patches and it's more effort to apply them than to review them there's a
problem.

This is something that generally causes no problems for submitters...
