How about integrating it into BugzillaJS? I'm working on it quite a lot now (https://github.com/gkoberger/BugzillaJS/pull/77 and https://github.com/gkoberger/omnium/pull/3) to make some improvements to Bugzilla 'core'.
I think an add-on that eventually is good enough to use for Mozillians would be very beneficial. I think it might even go as far as the add-on being the frontend and Bugzilla itself being regarded as the backend/ datastore. Regardless, doing Github integration in BugzillaJS should be trivial.
