patchwork used to work great as an archive (it runs for GCC for almost
ten years now).  It is not meant as a patch review system: instead, it
is meant as something for (kernel) maintainers where they can pick up
patches to apply (which isn't our workflow: people apply their own
patches, in general).  It is also useful to find neglected patches, but
that only can work if someone (or a group of people) does the work for
that.  This doesn't work for us.

*Used to* work great...  With the From: munging, it now has become
quite hard (and very annoying) to navigate, and even just to read :-(
