This seems to have fallen through the cracks. TBH we're not very good
at tracking patches sent over email, so in the future, I recommend
filing Redmine tickets, assigned to the current release manager
(https://tails.boum.org/contribute/calendar/), and with a patch
attached (or better: a pointer to a branch).

Cheers,
