Auto-generated issue templates

As of version 6.4.0, patch-package gives users the option to automatically create issues based on their patch files. This feature aims to reduce the friction involved in providing package maintainers with useful feedback.
It works by adding the --create-issue flag when creating a patch file.
Which will open a browser tab with the issue body mostly filled-in.
Please feel free to provide feedback here on auto-generated issues, either as a package maintainer or as a patch-package user 🙏
This is great ❤️
How will this respect the issue templates of the respective repositories?
As a package maintainer, this is slightly annoying. This circumvents a lot of the stuff we have in our issue tracker workflow to get people to tell us what exactly is wrong, and just suggests a patch package that they believe is right because it works well for them with no further prompting on their side to actually describe what is going on. Maybe it would be better if it created a PR instead? Or force the user to describe things a bit more?
