Dear David, 1. Why do you have a folder full of patches, when you are the upstream author of 4Pane? Have they been applied upstream, but there hasn't been a release of 4Pane recently? DEP-3 has a patch header to indicate that they have been merged upstream, if this is indeed the case.
2. I see that w.r.t. 4pane/4Pane, you're using 4Pane wherever Debian policy permits you too. Good idea. The only thing I'm not sure about is the symlink from /usr/share/doc/4Pane to /usr/share/doc/4pane/html. It could be misleading, since Debian users expect /usr/share/doc/foo to give them a folder containing a changelog, a Debian changelog etc. Why not link to /usr/share/doc/4pane?

You should look up the definitions of the Vcs-* fields in Debian policy :) -- Sean Whitton
