"Next action" reminder

[connorjclark]

Connor: how would you implement a "next action at date" thing with git3p0?
to trigger a notification by commenting on the issue or something

hm yeah kinda tricky
you'd need the issue to be recent enough to be scanned by git3po since it doesn't keep any state
could always add some sort of state mechanism
but I think it could be workable without one
idea:

- add a label "pending-action" or reuse "chillin" or something
- process issues with these labels regardless of last edited date
- scan for some pattern of "next action: <date>" 
- add another template variable that reuses the result of that parsing
