Description

Similar to how gitter.im renders links to PRs and issues in different colors depending on their status (open/closed), we can consider adding some styling to the {github} inlcude to change the link color (or even show a popup on mouse-over?) dependent on status. It would however involve querying GitHub API for rendering each link.

Research direction

Locate the {github} include that renders issue and pull-request links, then trace how each link is generated. Review the GitHub API requirement and decide whether status coloring or hover details is in scope; done should visibly distinguish open and closed links without breaking existing rendering.
