Re: [presentation-api] Pull in issue tracker data using GitHub API

@mfoltzgoogle Would your first concern be addressed if the first 
comment of each issue that is pulled in the spec would be edited in GH
 issues to be worded as such that it is fine for inclusion into the 
spec while further elaboration would be placed in the follow up 
comments? We've used this integration in some other specs and I 
personally felt keeping GH issues in sync with the spec makes the 
editor's life easier since it minimizes information duplication. The 
only tradeoff I noticed is that since this information is pulled from 
GH into the spec dynamically the source itself does not include the 
issue text, source diff for issue text changes is not possible unless 
we generate an HTML from the source on each commit (we do that with 
ReSpec for some specs).

I think the second concern is already addressed i.e. closed issues are
 not rendered, but it would probably still make sense to drop the 
issue placeholder `<div>`s from the specification when the 
corresponding issue is closed similarly to as we'd do even without 
this integration.

If the above does not address the concerns and  you feel this 
integration is not actually helping you as an editor feel free to 
revert. It is always the editor who has the final say on the toolchain
 issues :-)
