Bug Description
Most packages are complex enough that we should make the default be quilt vs native to allow faster updating via patches

Hi,
Do you really update the code provided by developers in patches in the packaging?
I wouldn't think it would be a useful facility to you because you are mainly dealing
with binaries, even if we were wanting to patch code for the developers (I would think
that it would be a tricky area for us, as we want the developers to own the code.)
Thanks,
James
