[JENKINS-64895] Cannot filter GitHub Pull Request jobs by title/description

I am using GitHub branch source plugin to build pull requests, which internally uses SCM API plugin to apply filters by name. However, the filter works only for Pull Request name, which is not helpful as the name is an auto-generated number created by GitHub.

The real benefit in case of a Pull Request would come if it supports filter by title or description e.g. If Pull Request title or description contains a specific word like "automated" then skip the build.

Is there a way this can be achieved ?
