The current situation
Often, when an issue is opened, there's some kind of minimal code example that showcases the problem. After the issue is opened, other people then need to recreate the problem locally, which sometimes fails. Maybe since the author has some local software that interferes with the rest, maybe because the author forgot to mention a few steps, or maybe because the code example itself doesn't lead to the bug.
Possible solution
Wouldn't it be great if issues would offer some kind of GitHub Actions like interface? Basically, a way for the author to recreate the problem in a sealed environment, like a Docker container.
