"patch-3" is a patchlevel, not a revision name of any kind. "foo--bar--0--patch-3" is a revision name, and it would be acceptable here. "me@example.com/foo--bar--0--patch-3" is a fully-qualified revision name, and it would also be acceptable. So your proposed changes would be incorrect. Anyhow, there's a better option: we can make "tla changes patch-3" work.
