10 Ways to improve Github Issues

I love the new GitHub issues, here are some ideas to make it perfect, ordered by priority:

  1. I should be able to pick the assignee and milestone via keyboard when creating a new ticket
  2. Keyboard shortcuts should work everywhere. For example when viewing an existing issue, 'c' will not create a new one.
  3. After creating an issue, the assigned user / milestone should be pre-filled when creating the next issue.
  4. When commenting, I should also be able to assign a different user. Right now this deletes my half-typed comment.
  5. When typing the @ symbol to mention somebody, it should auto-complete the name.
  6. This might just be me, but things feel a little sluggish right now, any improvements would be very welcome.

"Auto" Scale Heroku Cedar instances with rake tasks
I think this is a nice option for apps that are mostly used during particular hours and aren't really ready
for a more intense auto-scaling thing. Hirefire (https://github.com/meskyanichi/hirefire) likely does a
lot more, but I didn't really understand how it worked and don't really need something that fancy right now.
I suspect it requires at least one worker itself, but I don't really know.
Add an API key to your app's Heroku config
heroku config:add HEROKU_API_KEY=your_key (from https://api.heroku.com/account )
Add the above rake task. Change 'YOUR-APPS-NAME' to indigo-butterfly-77 or whatever your app's name is.
