> github has a huge warning saying to never use pull_request_target to run user code

This is an area where documentation is necessary but not sufficient. Github needs to add some form of automated screening mechanism to either prevent this usage, or at the very least quickly flag usages that might be dangerous.

"pull_request_target" vs "pull_request" is also bad naming. At least give it a dangerous name.

And a labeling action which requires `pull_request_target`: https://github.com/actions/labeler#create-workflow

These types of features are not worth it and need to be removed from the marketplace.
