I know. Some of mine are blocked for years now and I apply them manually for each new version at my servers.

But still some patches are turned down because they do harm to other parts of the system. We cannot let that happen. It may hit business of companies who use TYPO3.

Some work for TYPO3 core is also sponsored. Unfortunately TYPO3 association does not care about v4 any more and they sponsor only v5 :( So it is all in the hands of 3rd party interested companies...
