I think that what I'm trying to say here is that I think it's time that 
we try to stop thinking that the only place we can collect this 
information is bugzilla.

A one-to-one relationship between crashes and bugs is high overhead, 
anonymous, useless data.  But take data, put it somewhere else and make 
it available in a way that's useful and you've just made your lives much 
easier.  You learn more about what's going on in the world and you've 
just made bugzilla higher signal too - by removing all the data that 
should have been somewhere else in the first place.

Bugzilla should be for tasks that real humans have to do, not data that 
needs to be collected and processed.
