Two things I've noticed today while doing OCR duties are:
1. There's no way to tell if a PR has a review when looking at the list of
open PRs. I may be missing something or it may be an oversight on the part
of GH and will likely be remedied soon. When there are comments it shows
little comment clouds and a count, but not if there's only a review nothing
shows there for me.
2. When someone amends a commit and force pushes, the review remains but
isn't attached to a commit any longer. You can see that there was an update
because the commit appears later in the timeline than the review on the PR
details view. Personally, I think that once you make a PR and involve
someone else we shouldn't rewrite history anymore.
