It would easier to move discussion to bpo if there were a clickable link
from PR to bpo, just as there is in the opposite direction. I believe
that there is a workflow issue to add this, but last I knew, it was
bogged down in where to put the link, or something.

The idea is being tracked at https://github.com/python/bedevere/issues/3 and it isn't bogged down so much as the people typically writing these bots/integrations having the time to implement the idea. I should also mention I'm hoping to have the link be accompanied with a short blurb reminding people to keep discussions on GH to just code reviewing and everything else going to bpo.
