And that's a damn good answer. The less a user has to do with respect to filing 
a bug, perhaps they will be more willing to hit the 'submit' rather than 
cancel the process. 

I think this would make a great UDS discussion topic as to how we move towards 
this. Perhaps someone from one of the apport/LP/foundations/etc teams should 
write up a blueprint? 

If not, I can certainly submit one, though it would be better coming from the 
correct team who would be able to drive this home.

Cheers,

Rod.
