Huh.  The seems like a very nice program.  I've wanted a way to enable
config items from command line for a long time.  I wasn't able to get it
enable the CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL.

~/config-kernel/configk -e NO_HZ_FULL  -c .config  .

I'm going Ack your patch because adding a newline is the correct thing
but you should probably also change configk to handle that.

It's not required.  The KTODO is just a shared todo list and anyone can
add stuff to todo list or do it, but it's not mandatory at all.
