Gnucash is following the Gnome patch submission practice. Gnome uses git,

with the same submission
practice.
Is there any way both could work together? I've been reading a bit on
the shortcomings of GitHub PRs [1] and am curious if any combination
of git-request-pull [2], .patch URL [3], or patches-by-email [4] could
work.

I also just read about git-bz [1] (linked from the git wiki). It looks
promising as well. If there was some way to integrate OAuth it seems like it
could even be ideal. Thoughts?

Git-bz does look useful to me. People that want to submit patches
without having commit access can install this locally. At first sight it
doesn't seem to create new bugs if the patch you wish to publish is not
related to an existing bug. That may be a drawback.
