Well, not in all cases you can do this. There could cases when patches 
in one port are spanning several levels. And it's not really the point. 
For me, those patches are managed by the automated tool, so that I don't 
really care about their names, and nobody should as long as the port 
works. I am not going to spend my time satisfying yours or anybody 
else's aesthetics sentiments regarding patch names, sorry.
