As an org admin,
I would like label-sync to automatically request access to my organisation
So that it appears in the pending requests section of my 'Third Party Applications' and I can authorise it.


Further details:

Given all of the changes that Github has been making recently, the default for new repos is now to restrict access to third party applications:

Because of this change, the label-sync app always fails for repos with this restricted access:

The problem isn't so much that access is now required, but that the label-sync application does not appear in the 'pending requests' section in the org.

This means that the only way to authorise the application is to temporarily unrestrict third party app access and run label-sync (in which case it works right away). This is not a good way to do it and will severely hamper usage of the application!
