Bitbucket has had a(n honestly better) version of this functionality for a while. One of the few areas where they beat Github.
As for which is better... depends. That's why it's good to have both on a toggle like so.

Github's issue management is optimal for small projects. But Bitbucket shines at issue management for large projects: priorities, voting, watching, components, issue workflow.
Bitbucket also has a responsive and fluid design that utilizes screen real-estate better.
All-in-all, I am seriously considering Bitbucket for larger projects.

The nice thing is bitbucket has an issue tracker for the site. I am sure Github would have a similar list of pet peeves if it had a way to publicly track feature requests.
