Some concerns I have:
* Some people will want to have more than one patch, so having separate
kernels with the separate patches won't make everyone happy, but patches
are often incompatible (or at least apparently incompatible, needing manual
merging), so making a single kernel with all the patches isn't going to
scale.
* What about kmods? Building those for all the patched kernels will quickly
lead to an explosion of kmods.
