If we want to sync our Github project board with external systems, it would be helpful to have a way to trigger actions when an Issue is dragged from one column to another.

I want to keep this action simple and focused on the issue and pull request webhooks. I could expand it to use column webhooks. This would address this need. Would you be interested in helping adding this functionality?

This is awesome, thanks @woodie. I don't have time right now to implement this but the details here are really awesome. If you want to make a PR I can definitely review it.

Got it working with existing actions.
