To make it easier to undo uploads, it could make sense to track uploads made via Pattypan with EditGroups. There is an instance of this tool running at https://editgroups-commons.toolforge.org.

It is quite easy to add support for this on Pattypan's side: all it takes is to add a link in the edit summary, as described here:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Edit_groups/Adding_a_tool#For_custom_bots

I am suggesting this while acknowledging that EditGroups is (in my opinion) a temporary and unreliable measure to mitigate the lack of support for edit groups (or "changesets", to use the OSM term) in MediaWiki itself (or as an extension).

We should definitely implement edit groups. Thank you for such detailed documentation/code examples!
