Mentioned Pull Panel Available

[AdrianoDee]

Hi,
Is there a way to have also the https://github.com/pulls/mentioned panel, for open PRs, as we have all the others (Created,Assigned,Review requests)? In case there's already a solution for this: sorry I did not find it, my bad!

Hi @AdrianoDee! Thanks for creating this issue to discuss this. Would you be interested in implementing this feature?

@AdrianoDee What is the use case of such a counter/panel? What value does it provide when there are already notifications?

[AdrianoDee]

Hi @mickmister, @hanzei:

• I would be interested but I'm not an expert in Go so it could take some time;
• the point is that with notifications you get notified when you are mentioned and that's it. Having that panel would allow to monitor how the PR you are mentioned are going on. This comes from a project I'm involved in in which each PR is automatically labelled and, based on the labels, reviewers are tagged but do not become assignee.

@AdrianoDee Great thanks for explaining 👍

I think this feature would bring value as you describe. @hanzei I think this is a welcomed improvement. Thoughts on making this help wanted?

@mickmister @hanzei Should we make this HW ticket or we should work on this.

[hanzei]

@Kshitij-Katiyar Let's keep is as a HW

Hi I'd like to pick this up but have some questions:

I'm assuming we want to add this as an overlay trigger to the sidebars, in which case which icon would we want to use?

@mickmister @hanzei Can we provide an icon for the sidebar here?

Hi @cyrusjc, thanks for your interest in contributing 👍

I'm thinking the font awesome comment icon may be appropriate here. This is available by setting the class name fa fa-comment https://fontawesome.com/icons/comment?f=classic&s=solid. @matthewbirtch Do you have any thoughts on this?

[matthewbirtch]

Ideally we shift all the github plugin icons to compass icons, but that can be done later. For now we can use font-awesome. I would suggest the outlined version of the comment icon though

I'm slotted in the icon shown below. I couldn't get the FA v5 icons to work so I found the closest looking one in v4.
