What about people who send you occasionnal patches, and happen to be using Bitkeeper too ?
Do you still prefer only regular patches from them or you would accept something generated with a: bk send -d torvalds@transmeta.com (which prepends the bk changeset with the equivalent in unified diff format, so you can have the best of both worlds) ?
In the latter case Documentation/SubmittingPatches should be updated with the proper BitKeeper syntax to use etc.
