To save one round-trip, I do not think it is unreasonable to treat submitGit as the first-class MUA that sits next to other recommended ways to send the patches to the list. It is a rough equivalent to "format-patch and then send-email". As long as what appears on list is the authoritative and final form of contribution, those on the receiving end should not (and would not) care how the patch e-mail was prepared and sent.
