Some of the work I'm doing with code review on sourcehut can be
generalized, to support writing up arbitrary mailing lists with
arbitrary review tools with a bidirectional workflow. I intend to make a
reality of this for at least lists.sr.ht <-> gitlab and lists.sr.ht <->
github, so that patchsets and the resulting discussion gets turned into
git{hub,lab} code reviews, and vise versa. I think it's possible to make
a system which presents both sides with an experience that is idiomatic
for each context, so that you can't really tell whose using which tool
because they're both speaking each other's conventional language.
