Slack: [feature request] subscribe to mentions: /github subscribe owner/repo mentions

[campbellssource]

I'd love to get notifications in slack only when I am mentioned in a given repo.

So the request is that a [feature] is added called mentions. So that I can type /github subscribe owner/repo mentions and only get a notification in slack when someone mentions me.

It occurred to me that /github subscribe owner/repo mentions does not specify a use's mentions to subscribe to. This might be a bit odd in a public channel.
I really want to subscribe to mentions in the app/bot rather than a channel.

Perhaps the query could be /github subscribe owner/repo mentions:campbellssource

Thanks @campbellssource for reaching out to us and suggesting a feature. We would look into this and prioritise accordingly.
