It was used for this, yes. But still I don't think it is complicated. I
find it more natural than dpatch. I used to think like you, but once I
actually read the quilt manpage and tried it in action, I never looked
back at dpatch again. There is some learning curve, but it is surely not
as complicated as "used by -mm tree pre-git" would suggest.
That said, you are of course free to use whatever way of patch-handling
you feel comfortable with. It seems that some sponsors have preference
of how this is done, that's all.
