Yup -1 anything that is wrong, even if it is the must trivial error ever
encountered.  We have a pre commit review workflow exactly for that.

If you feel brave enough, you could edit it yourself:
 - download the change
 - amend it
 - sent patchset back
 - leave a message (fixed typo)
 - removed yourself from the reviewer list
Done :-]


I wanted to have a spell checker to lint the commit message, but
eventually gave up because of the number of false positives.
