[Koha-devel] Fixing deeply embedded typos

Hi,

Just now I've pushed a patch series for bug 10080 [1] to master, which
corrects a long-standing typo in the name of the system preference
IndependentBranches.

This patch had been held back from the 3.12 release for the very good
reason that it had the potential to cause instability for small (but
not nonexistent, to be clear) gain.

However, now that we're at the very beginning of the 3.14 cycle, the
window is now open for the sort of patch that offers cosmetic or
textual improvement but which also happens to touch a lot of code.  If
there are longstanding typos you want to fix (my "favorite" is the
wthdrawn column in the items table), now is your chance.  I'm not
setting a definite end to the window at this point, but suffice it to
say that I will be much more likely to merge such patches now as
opposed to three months from now.
