[DISCUSS] Using the new 'help wanted' tool from comdev

Hi folks!

ASF comdev has put up a great new tool for funneling in new folks:

https://helpwanted.apache.org/

How about we brainstorm a few things here (maybe some beginner JIRAs
we can flesh out a little?) and then file?

At least from looking at the "I want to add stuff for folks to work
on" that I did quickly last week, it seems to be manually curated
rather than autopopulated.

This way people experienced (or maybe not?) in those tools can add the support in a fairly isolated environment while they learn the rest of the code base.

	IIRC, there was a way to tag JIRAs so that they also show up.  (What was that tag again?) I think the #1 thing here would be for precommit plug-ins to get tagged.  This way people experienced (or maybe not?) in those tools can add the support in a fairly isolated environment while they learn the rest of the code base.
