Just a few packages use this feature and if you as a maintainer are really missing some information, you can always ask the submitter for it. You say that bugs with rng lack of important information and that many of them are useless. Could you please backup this claim by a few examples? I've reported many bugs so far and seldom found that the stuff which was added automatically provided any useful information regarding this bug. In contrast, I was pretty annoyed by some packages abusing this feature. I don't know which package it was (I think it was XServer) but I had to read a few pages of presubj and my bugreport was full of useless config crap.
