I sent them to the gnomecc list (the changes to let control center enable 
it were bigger than the changes to the metacity ones, but more 
importantly, control-center actually had a mailing list address in its 
README).

The metacity patches I also sent to maintainers that I tried to google 
for, because there isn't even any submission address in the sources that I 
could find.

Of course, the gnomecc mailing list is "by members only", so I don't know 
if the patches ever got accepted by the moderator. 

Quite frankly, I think it's interesting how (a) no developer contacts were 
listed and (b) the one that did list it doesn't even accept email from 
outside.

I'm attaching a tar-ball of the patches since you seem to know *what* the 
mailing lists are and may even be subscribed. This tar-ball contains

	src/metacity-2.17.5/0001-Clean-up-double-middle-right-click-frame-action.patch
	src/metacity-2.17.5/0002-Add-lower-and-menu-to-title-bar-action-events.patch
	src/metacity-2.17.5/0003-Add-the-prefs.c-variables-for-middle-and-right-click-actions.patch
	src/metacity-2.17.5/0004-Allow-actually-changing-preferences-for-middle-and-right-click.patch
	src/metacity-2.17.5/0005-Fix-some-obvious-and-harmless-cut-and-paste-errors.patch
	src/control-center-2.17.5/0001-Add-support-for-new-titlebar-actions.patch
	src/control-center-2.17.5/0002-gnome-window-properties-learn-about-mouse-actions.patch

which should be obvious enough ;)

Feel free to send them forward to the right people (and maybe give hints 
to them that if you have a README file that says "REPORTING BUGS AND 
SUBMITTING PATCHES", it might be good to actually give an email to send 
things to, instead of saying "Send me mail" with no email address actually 
ever mentioned!)

I dislike bugzilla in general, but it's *especially* useless since I'm not 
really interested in signing up for yet another account.
