I obviously failed to drive the point home: in this workflow, I don't
_want_ bzr to track these changes.  I want them to look like changes
I made directly on the trunk.

After invoking `patch', there's a commit, so how can you say I never
"incorporated the changes into `trunk'"?  Perhaps you mean "merge"
instead of "incorporate".  In the latter case, that's exactly what I
want: it does what Stefan asked for -- avoid numerous merge commits on
the trunk when they bear no importance (due to insignificant amount of
real changes).
