Also, a nice feature to add in the future would be if `vc-default-patch-addressee' could be computed by inferring maintainers for the files changes (sort of what the Linux kernel also does with the get_maintainer.pl script). I don't know of any generic mechanism, but maybe one could come up with some kind of a standard for the GNU project and try to promote it for others as well?
