Let's also make sure that everything with the "newbie" label is actually straightforward and has a clear end-goal. Oh, and is reasonably issue to test.
E.g. adding a built-in function is a good one if the semantics of the function are clearly documented in the JIRA and there aren't any potential compatibility issues. We've seen a few new contributors pick up JIRAs with the newbie that sounded easy but were actually tricky to get right - that's not a great experience.
