If I could create a task in RTM and then post it to an issue list of one of my projects on github.com, it would help me a lot.

Motivation: I often find myself do repetitive work when creating task that is essential a reminder to fix an issue, listed on github. My fellow hackers doesn't necessarily have an RTM account (for various reasons) and while RTM is starting to be a great help in organizing my todos, I need to communicate project issues and status outside RTM.

Implementation:
A task could be given the RTM tag "github [repo name]", that would create an issue on github.com. When complete is pressed, the issue would be closed. RTM would need to store the issue number, which in turn could be sent to other RTM users.
Use the github issue API http://develop.github.com/p/issues.html see Open and Close Issues
