Public bug reported:
The automatic bug reporting is not so automatic.
When an application crashes, it triggers "Apport" to run.
It asks the user if he wants to submit a bug report, and the user can select
yes or no. (Good)
However, when the user clicks on the "Send bug report" button, it opens
the web browser and redirects him over here to bugs.launchpad.net
Most (especially new) users, don't want to bother register an account on
the website and enter a description.
If an application crashes and they're asked two choices "Report crash" or
"Don't report crash", many will click on the "Report crash" if it causes no
personal inconvenience, effort or loss of time for them.
But non-technical users, don't want to report it, if it brings up a website
where they need to register an account and enter a description.
So I propose to make it so the user can quickly send a bug report
without inconvenience, effort or time, by just pressing a button, and it
sends it without the user have to have an account or type anything.
