I thought that the main requirement for patchwork to remove committed 
patches automatically was that the git-patch-id of the committed change 
was the same as that of the patch posting.  The patch-id does not depend 
on the commit message, only on the diffs (but this does require that the 
posted diffs be the same as the committed ones - in particular, committing 
changes to the ChangeLog file that aren't included in the diffs prevents 
such automatic removal at present).
