Thanks for the clarification and the interesting question :-)

I've just read through Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst
and it seems there is an "official" way to show that relationship, via a
tag named "Co-Developed-by:" described under number 12.

So I guess we could just adapt the patch accordingly, if that is ok with
both of you (i.e. I can change this when applying, so no need to resend).
