This would add a fourth checkbox to the Jira form but it would help simplify tracking the progress of tickets that include a submitted patch.  I am not suggesting this a solution to the problem of patch management but as a tweek that may help us better measure the extent of the problem.

I don't think a checkbox of "patch attached" is all that valuable.  I prefer my proposal that says "This JIRA is trunk-ready" - it communicates far more useful information to a project lead.  Just having a patch attached is zero indication that this is something that needs a little bit of immediate attention.
