I think that is a great idea and I'm curious about the results!
Two remarks though:

1. We're trying to achieve a high code coverage in extbase & fluid, so 
new commits should be covered by unit tests. If possible, add those 
tests to the patch already - that will increase the chances (and speed) 
of your changes making it into the core. And if you haven't tried it 
yet, get your hands on test driven development - it's fun ;)

2. If you have a fix/feature/change that concern both, the Fluid package 
as well as the fluid extension, it would be good if you could write the 
patch against the Fluid package. There are good chances that the changes 
can be backported to the v4 extension automatically.
