I'm not quite sure I understood that correctly. Are you talking about
patches present in a repo different from the one a hypothetical update
was detected? Is it seriously discriminating if such patches are
detected only on opensuse-updaters next round of source-refreshes?

My feeling towards this are that a user would rather do three updates a
day (on the rare occasion that there really _are_ three updates a day),
because opensuse-updater does not detect them all in one go, than wait
for YaST to refresh the giant opensuse-oss repo + 10 or so additional
installation sources on an update _just_to_make_sure_.
