+1. UI-based interactions don't export well for archival-permalinking
reasons, and Github archive behavior is for repositories only, not the
reviews.
But yes, wouldn't want to delay for a bot to echo conversations to
devel@edk2.groups.io or some other solution.

It looks like this is already resolved for the existing

This is not configured on tianocore/edk2 at the moment. I have no way
to invite a reviewer. Is this a planned fix?
