For one thing, I'm not sure how far that went, for the other, we are calling a Windows function to generate the minidump and I'm not sure if we can reserve the memory it needs reasonably beforehand.
We did this in bug 837835. We currently reserve 12MB of address space for the crash reporter. This is apparently either not enough or doesn't work for many crashes; it doesn't appear to have made a noticeable impact converting empty-dump crashes to collect useful minidumps.
