I don't see any reasonable argument to support this view. A 
critical patch can be very small.
Telling contributors what is worthwhile and fun for them is kinda 
pointless.

Besides, if you maintain your own fork you might run into bugs 
that you have fixed that you don't know how will interact with 
the main branch. Letting someone else who know the main branch do 
the final patch based on what you have figured out is a nice 
gesture.
