Non of the items in the author's list is a bugfix. They all are enhancements. A bugfix would fix a bug, which means something would not work as it is supposed to, fail, and that is not the case here.

Arguing semantics, maybe. But I think it is important to distinguish here. Polishing issues or enhancements or whatever you call it are things that do not need to be adressed, but they can. But bugs needs to be fixed. Choosing between what to do now is choosing between maintenance work and feature enhancement work, plumbing and UX.

I think it would be great if Github would hire and let him build these things, does not matter if he finishes in a month.
