Aren't we already treating them differently on an ad-hoc basis? Several committers fast-track such patches through the process. We could mark them differently in the CF app, but I'm not sure what we'd want to achieve by doing that. Such small patches are frequently enough buggy. Committers can most of the time can easily polish them up, but that still takes time; so I think tests/reviews of those are still worthwhile. So the only real difference I see an explicit difference would make is making it easier to spot such patches when looking for an easy thing to commit, and to make life for the commitfest manager easier. Not sure if such a labeling would save more time than doing the labeling itself would cost.
