Body

It would be great if functionality could be exposed that in the Roadmap view in Projects where via adding certain labels to an issue/discussion/pr would automatically mark it in that view.

An Example

Roadmaps are really great for building a content scheduling system for things like documentation release plans (and all other kinds of content too) that need to be completed by a certain time, but they aren't necessarily needing to be part of a milestone with due dates etc.

As Issues only allow you to use labels and labels to cover all usecases & scenarios can be overburdened with having a series of labels for things like

• Month
  Combined with either
• Day of month
• Specific part of the month

That can be used for this kind of need.

However it would be nicer to have custom Issue Fields per repo instead that can take overburdening of labels away, though that is a bigger harder thing to solve & support.
