I don't comment much on grammar, but I am prone to at least repeat someone's typos if they amuse me. I expect it in kind, though, so I like to think of it as sort of a balance. And it's usually over channels where we're prone to joking around anyway.

However, the context and the other person is going to play a large part over how someone will react to it. It could be seen as open embarrassment that leads to frustration and anger. Or even being nitpicky, it's hard to say. Personally, I wouldn't mind as long as it's presented in a friendly manner, but I can't speak for everyone.
