One GitHub feature I think is absolutely critical here is the ability
to do web-based change suggestions (pull requests) via the web
interface, with no need for other tools or (much) special knowledge.
Just hit the edit button, make your change in the browser, and click a
few obscure-seeming-but-not-very-scary buttons.

I don't think we should be limited to that, but I think we definitely
need to enable it.

I don't think Pagure has this feature — Pingou, do you have a rough
estimate of how much effort it would be to add? It looks like rel-eng
is committing to (at least trying) Pagure. I notice that
https://kallithea-scm.org/ has the edit-online feature.
