No objection since this is opt-in.

I dislike the noisiness of our patch as well. Unfortunately --quiet is
too quiet, so you will miss fuzz/offset (maybe you update patches
automatically).

I wish there was a mode that made patch behave more like GNU patch in
terms of noisiness (and no, I don't want to set PATCH to gpatch).
