  For me it's not needed to add an additional comment. I also don't think it's 
necessary to distinguish between upstream-supported legacy packages and 
not-upstream-supported one in the menu - better do that (more verbosely) in the 
help text.

  Maybe change the comment into "legacy modules", because the webkit thing is 
not for compatibility.

  Generate git patches with -N, so there is no [PATH 1/3] header (which in this 
case is alrady incorrect because there are 4 patches, not 3).

  As Julien wrote, you have to add your Sob to indicate that the license is OK.

  I thought qtwebkit was removed? So how can it be backported from the 5.7 branch?

  Yes, that's what I mean!

  In case anyone asks: the reason to use github is because it supports 
downloading tarballs from random commits, while cgit doesn't. But I'd like to 
see a comment to explain this.

  That this is needed is really really suspicious... A quick grep through the 
source doesn't show anything relevant.
