Feature Request: Open Board File To Edit in Place #423

priority: low
Low priority issue, nice to have implemented at some point but not urgent
Rather than importing a board, allow adding a reference to a board that serves only as a pointer to an external file.
Any changes made to the board in Kanri should be immediately reflected in that file, without requiring an export each time.
A board added to Kanri this way could be flagged as external in the boards list, to prevent confusion.
Rationale:
I'm trialing a workflow in which my issue tracking for any individual repository is handled by a Kanri board, the data for which is stored directly in that same repository. This allows it to benefit from all the advantages afforded by the combination of git/github (local control, versioning, cloud storage & collaboration etc.) and keeps it in the same place as the project it pertains to.
Unfortunately it can be a pain to repeatedly import/export boards to facilitate this, and there is potential for desync if some changes are made in Kanri and then mistakenly not exported before committing the file.
If this use case matches your view of how Kanri should be used, please consider adding this feature.
