I am very much interested in that discussion. Looking at Bugzilla
we already have a number of proposals on mylyn integration:

- Add API to provide CommitDialog proposals/templates
  Bug 329515 <https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=329515>
- [team] provide EGit integration for Mylyn
  Bug 306001 <https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=306001>
- EGit and Mylyn encourage best-practice use of branches: task-related
changes occur on a branch
  Bug 309578 <https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=309578>
- Add support for mylyn
  Bug 302049 <https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=302049>

Hence I propose you choose the one which seems to fit best to your idea
and do the discussion there, of course you may as well post on egit-dev
but tracking discussions is easier in Bugzilla.
