True, but with a caveat that they may range from "low hanging fruit"
to "too hard, let's punt". After seeing the anonymous questioners'
question, I did go to that query page (actually I qualified the
query further to list only the ones I gave the mark) and decided not
to suggest it because I found that many recent ones are harder than
"trivial changes suitable for a practice material to go through the
review cycles" X-<.
