<p>Well everybody will have their own favourite bit of metadata and before long you have bugzilla.</p>
<p>More to the point, and something I missed last night, is really what <a class="user-mention" data-hovercard-type="user" data-hovercard-url="/users/woodpeck/hovercard" data-octo-click="hovercard-link-click" data-octo-dimensions="link_type:self" href="https://github.com/woodpeck">@woodpeck</a> is saying - notes were never intended as a way of discussing existing objects like this. They are designed and intended as a way of attaching a discussion to a geographic location, not an object.</p>
<p>So in the same way that we added comments to changesets rather than allowing a changeset ID to be attached to a note, the correct way to do this (if we wanted to) would be to allow comments to be attached to objects rather than repurposing notes.</p>
