This was a bug I encountered yesterday while using todo-mode.  It was
clearly broken behavior, so I assumed the fix should go to emacs-25, and
since I'm the todo-mode maintainer, I thought it was all right to commit
the fix without filing a bug report.  Would you prefer me to make a bug
report first in such cases?  To be sure, the bug existed since I added
this version of todo-mode to the Emacs repository almost three years
ago, so it's not a regression; yet it was clearly a bug.  If I encounter
another such bug in todo-mode should I wait for approval from a core
maintainer to commit to emacs-25?
