 Sending one large patch seems the simplest option to me.

 The diff between the parent of the first draft changeset on the current
 branch and the user's working directory can be obtained using

 {{{
 hg diff -r 'parents(first(draft() and branch(parents())))'
 }}}

 This also works when using mercurial queues (ticket #180).
