Unless the change is in the middle of a large series or require more
involved edit [*1*], it is perfectly fine to tell me the maintainer
to do these small menial changes on behalf of you---you explicitly
need to tell me what you want to happen, though.

Thanks.

[Footnote]

*1* ... in which case we have a larger chance of the maintainer
    screwing up while attempting to do so, and I'd prefer to see an
    updated version posted on the list.  That way, we can benefit
    from extra set of eyeballs watching our exchange from the
    sideline.
