About the patch tagging, it's never too late to begin doing things properly. The KDE packages have countless patches that were pushed years ago, were never upstreamed and are potentially pointless nowadays.
I second Cristophe's opinion. As a person working mostly in upstream KDE, I pushed where possible to upstream patches or work directly in upstream's source repository when putting in fixes that weren't openSUSE-specific. An approach that worked nicely in 4.10's release cycle (udisks2 backend, build system fixes, Plasma theming fixes the most important). For a good part of the KDE team this is the de facto "modus operandi" now, which is much better than keeping such patches only in openSUSE. – Luca Beltrame - KDE Forums team KDE Science supporter GPG key ID: 6E1A4E79
