e) zypper "patch" operations should only read an refresh repos that actually **contain** patches (i.e doing something like curl -Iv http://ftp4.gwdg.de/pub/opensuse/update/10.3/repodata/patches.xml as detection) currently all repos are refreshed regardless the contents.
That would make patch checking MUCH faster, but it depends on the assumption that all needed packages from the patch are in the same update repo, and that you can upgrade your system only with installed packages + update repos. This happens 99% of the time Not useful if you want to mention a foreign package in a patch. It just needs to be decided, how it should work.
