Add a quick action re-assign to the previous assignee

Problem to solve

I think we should have a quick action to "Return to sender" (previous assignee).

When I'm submitting a MR to review, I have to assign it to a reviewer, the reviewer will then send it back to me with comments/discussions items to resolve.

Further details

Benefit, you don't actually have to remember the handle @reviewername for all the reviewers. I just think it would fit nicely in the workflow.

MR created
MR /assign @a_reviewer
... reviewer add comments ...
MR reviewer /return
... author fixes changes ...
MR author /return
... it is goes on until everyone is happy with the changes ...

Proposal

Add the /return quick action to send back to the previous assignee, for merge requests (I also think it could be implemented for issues, but I don't see the use-case there)

Other possible names:

  • /pong 🏓
  • /rts (return to sender)
  • /bounce

What does success look like, and how can we measure that?

Quick action metrics?
