For those who are too lazy to look it up:

The "Agit workflow" requires you to use non-standard Git "push-options"
(either -o or --push-options):

git push origin HEAD:refs/for/master -o topic="topic-branch" \
  -o title="Title of the PR" \
  -o description="# The PR Description
This can be **any** markdown content.\n
- [x] Ok"

This means essentially that our attempt to move away from the e-mail-based 
submission procedure to something easy and user-friendly, would end up in 
replacing the current rarely-known mechanism with another even more rare and 
obscure procedure which would (again) force everybody to use the Git command 
line because it's (again) not supported by any tooling except Git CLI.

I'm afraid, but from my point of view, this doesn't match the objective.

Best
