How often do we even get patches generated from a downloaded copy of Python? Is it enough to need to worry about this?

When I do simple bugfixes of library code, I'll often work from my "live" Python environment, patch it in place, test and generate a patch with diff. Very primitive, but surprisingly effective.

Having said that, I don't think it's the end of the world if such patches couldn't use Reitveld. They are probably small enough that it would be overkill anyway.
