Why?

Github can be used in all sorts of ways that don't mesh with it's defined purpose.

For example, you can use github issues as a comment system if you'd like. Just put a URL in an href like this:

<a href="https://github.com/flaque/blog/issues/new">Make a comment</a>

But did you know that github also supports title and body query params?
