[Feature idea] tight github issues integration

[micimize]

Thought I would expand on my comment about the possibilities closing topics presents:

having a stream with a "topic per issue" synced with github would be a killer feature

This is what I'm imagining:

• a bot that adds a badge to each issue linking to the topic, with some heuristic for activity (chat length, most recent message)
• the ability to select a range of comments in the topic and turn them in to a comment (if not a comment already)
• and naturally, the topic is updated with activity from the issue

I know this would be a pretty hefty integration, but it would radically streamline communication in software projects. A large amount of the communication work I do as an engineer is negotiating the gap between github/lab/bucket and not. Being able to seemlessly bridge that gap would be a massive value add.

I feel this can be a really great feature.
