It would be nice to have more meaningful URLs such as:

gist.io/jeromegn/123456-sluggified-post-title

That's all possible without user intervention.

Username: Armed with the gist API, you could know which user this belongs to.
Slug: Generated from the gist's description

As soon as somebody hits gist.io/123456 you could redirect them to the more meaningful URL.
