This sounds sort of tantalising, especially the F8 timeframe. What are the details ? Is there e.g. an online core dump mapping service to be made available ? And if so, a standardized desktop UI crash reporter to submit the core somewhere on crash ? Seeing as gnome apps intercept by default SEGV and launch bug-buddy instead of creating a core dump and OOo does similar should we have a pile of bugs to just remove this stuff and crash to core and let something else take care of it.
