Sure.

Currently I have a fix for cvpcb.
This is a very low risk change, and a test case.
An other low risk is the common files.

The main risk is for Pcbnew files.

So, if I am the guy who make the job, I am thinking to commit 3 or 4 more basic changes in Pcbnew tree.

About merge issues, I know a few recent patches are not yet merged and not yet reviewed.
So, it could be worth to know what patches are still pending.
