On a more meta note, I find the channel of feedback and suggestions to GitHub to be virtually non-existent. I see plenty of great suggestions, and I myself have come up with a few, but they always end up as faint echoes leading to nothing. I find this particularly sad for a company that's marketed at being all about "open", participatory, community-driven, etc. The unreadable feeds on GitHub are emblematic of this problem. EDIT: Ditto for the Issues system, which scales really poorly.

GitHub's a lot like Twitter in that, and I think it's a real shame. It discourages suggestions like these, in my opinion.




I've had good luck by just emailing [email protected]; they told me that this is their preferred way to submit suggestions/feature requests.
