And Michael is updating the schema, right?

You could do this in one of two ways:

1) Add a comment that says you've applied the fix to the text but it still 
needs to be updated in the schema.  Then reassign the issue to Michael. 
When he has applied the change to the schema, then he marks the issue as 
"applied".

or

2) Create a "sub-task" for the schema change and assign that one to 
Michael.

I think #2 would be the most elegant
