[Bug 782975] Re: add a "report an issue" button to the details view to allow reporting bugs for individual software items

 

It turns out that while we haven't had many reviews misused to report
bugs, we have had support requests to Canonical that should have gone
directly to the vendor.

So, I have designed a "Report a Problem" link that would open a dialog
to direct problem reports to the appropriate place.
