This is a cool feature - thanks for proposing it.

I've only done a little bit of looking at it - I think I may need to
explicitly enable it for the bot repositories (but I still don't quite
understand the settings in 'Action permissions').  I'll spend more time
digging into it.

Are there any thoughts to using the scripts in .travis and maybe
consolidating it to something more generic?
