I hope that everyone takes 10 seconds and realizes that this appears to be
this person's first submitted patch. I would think a little more respect
for the attempt to patch a minor issue would be afforded to such a person.
Seems technically sound and they are not trying to change the world with
their first attempt.

Maybe a reminder that the TODO list is not always spectacular and that a
double check with the list before doing something might be in order (in
fact adding that to the top of the TODO list might be a great option here
as well).

It's not going to win a Turing award - but I thought this project was a
little more friendly then what I've seen in this thread towards a first
time contributor.
