But that would require that external contributors know to set that label ahead of time and I'm willing to bet most won't. I see two ways of solving this. One is to have a bot that leaves a comment when an issue isn't seen, otherwise it leaves a comment with a link back to the original issue for easy access. The other is we add a PR template that mentions that the title should include a reference to the issue for anything but the most trivial PR (and to create an issue otherwise).Obviously there's a great variance in effort required but also with the usefulness of what the solution does.
