I agree that we don't neccesary want everyone to report bugs, as them might
"spam" the system with low quality reports, but maybe link this button to
an FAQ / common problems page or even better - a forums or a mailing list.

noise we'll get as feedback to something which is actually feedback and not
bug/problem reports (on the technical level).
