Is it not like GitHub where you can add review comments directly at the 
corresponding code lines?

One essential ability there is that when multiple iterations of patches are 
sent, you can still see the review comments of the previous version, so you 
easily see and verify whether it has been resolved. 

Also, when a reviewer has marked a file as reviewed and there's an update to 
the patchset, the "viewed" marker gets cleared only if the file is different 
from the last time you reviewed it. That's highly useful as reviewers don't 
need to go through the whole patchset again on each update.

If you say the discussion would still happen on the ML, how can this work when 
the code is elsewhere (not on the ML)?
