A one-line patch for a complex module or piece of code may require
much more than looking at that single line to really review. I hope
you understand that.

That said, if you find any issues in the bug tracker that in your
opinion need only a few minutes of attention from a core developer,
feel free to send a note to the mentorship mailing list. People
sometimes come there asking for precisely this thing (help reviewing a
simple patch they submitted), and usually get help quickly if their
request is justified.
