When I click on a patch file, it shows up as text in my browser window.  I just copy and paste it all into a text file, and save it.  You do realize you have to compile the source code once you have patched it, right?  If you've never done it, check the wiki for instructions on compiling.

Also, album art is already in svn and scrolling margins is being deprecated in favour of viewports.

I just copy and paste it all into a text file, and save it.

An even quicker/easier way is just to "Save as..." once the txt file is open in your browser.

Reckoner:  I presume you want these features because of mentions on the theme pages of "requires this and that patch".  I recommend you either stick to themes that have been updated to work with the current build or download an unsupported build that has these patches included.
