Yep, I second to this - and it's the right way to move the hassle of
debug info stuff away from client side and our users. Current problem
is more unfinished ABRT (as UI is hardly usable, retrace server should
be default) and no other requirements should be put on users. I like mitr's 
analysis - covering most of the users. Back to objective reasons - see below.

For us, as KDE SIG taking care of Fedora KDE offering, it's quite a lot 
as we're unfortunately balancing on the CD capacity edge (these 3.5 MB 
and probably more are quite a huge problem...) for several releases.

On the other hand, it can help Dr. Konqui to have at least some debug 
information (and yeah, debug info installer in Dr. Konqui is ugly hack).
But as far as I know, ABRT and Dr. Konqui guys are in touch regarding
the retrace server. So again moving the debug side of thing away from
users machine.
