Prefix GitHub labels to group them?
Something the Rust project does is prefix all their labels with a single letter to have alphabetical sorting keep similar labels together. For instance, using the "T - " prefix to group all type-related label like bugfix, enhancement, etc. This is all done to make it easy to find all labels for a certain thing. Do people like this idea for labels that don't naturally have a common prefix? If so would people want the single letter prefix or full word prefixes?
coala uses full word prefixes for type, size, importance, and difficulty. https://github.com/coala/coala/labels And has a bot that auto labels when the suffixes are used in the issue/PR message. On Sat, 27 May 2017 05:48 Usman Ehtesham <uehtesham90@gmail.com> wrote:

Maybe the prefixes can be similar to how Falcon uses types in its commit messages: https://github.com/falconry/falcon/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#type <https://github.com/falconry/falcon/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#type>
