FYI, here's my interaction with them:

Hey Jo,
These are interesting ideas -- I can see how label permissions control
could be helpful in certain workflows. And adding label descriptions
makes sense. I can't make any promises, but I'll definitely pass your
ideas along to the team for future consideration.
Thanks for the feedback!
Cheers,
Jess

configure write access to labels, and I'd like to offer my 5 cents worth
to that. So here goes:

> What I'd really like is permissions that allow me to implement a
workflow using labels.
> Ingredients:
> - Permissions are on a per-group level for each label. (So Reviewers
can set the "Next:QA" label but nobody else can.)
> - Separate permissions for adding and for removing the label. (So
Reviewers can add "Next:QA" but only QA can remove "Next:QA".)
> - I'd want a pseudogroup "Author" for the person who started a PR/Issue.
> - I'd want a pseudogroup "Everybody" for permissions for everybody
with read access to the repo.
>
> As far as I understand things, the SymPy people want just a separate
permission for "can edit labels", probably with settings "everybody (all
readers)" and "just those with write access".
> That would be super helpful for me, too - I wouldn't be able to
*enforce* a workflow, but it would still be possible to define a
workflow by telling people how to do it.
>
> There's another proposal I'd like to make about labels: Add
descriptions. Display them as pop-ups wherever the label is shown (i.e.
on label display and on any buttons that set or remove a label).
> That way, people can easily remind themselves of what a specific
label is good for.
>
> If there's anything I can help to make this happen, let me know.
