Andrew,

I doubt you can enforce that through github configuration, and even if 
we could, that seems to me like adding overhead to all the people acting 
reasonably (some "institutional" large projects may have that kind of 
policy, but none of the projects I regularly or occasionally contribute 
to require this). That said, opening an issue to discuss a problem and 
expose some ideas can certainly be done when needed (and going through a 
full RFC for substantial changes), but someone contributing a typo fix 
shouldn't have to open a ticket first.
