We've long used "Trivial" priority to denote easy to jump into issues for
new folks.

https://tinkerpop.apache.org/docs/current/dev/developer/#_considering_code_changes

I liked using the priority field this way because labels have a way of
being mistyped from "newbie" to "newbies" to "noobie" to "easy" (it happens
with the one sanctioned label we use consistently quite often, i.e.
"breaking") and priority is just a simple drop down box. Feel free to
change it as you see fit, I just wanted to point out that we had something
that already existed in this area.
