Thanks Matthew for reviewing this. After some days I got used enough to
it, and your arguments make sense to me. I don't think it's important
enough to waste more brain cells on, so let's just keep it like this.

Title:
  Confusing "Continue" button for command line program crashes

Status in “apport” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  If a command line program crashes (reproducer: sh -c 'kill -SEGV $$'),
  the new apport UI shows

   [X] Send Error

  [Show Details]   [Continue]

  The "Continue" button does not seem to make much sense here: there is
  nothing to "continue", especially if you uncheck the "send error" box.
  For a program with a .desktop file, you instead have "Leave Closed"
  and "Restart", but we don't have that option for CLI programs.

  We could instead drop the checkbox and have [Send] [Cancel] buttons,
  or keep the checkbox and depending on its state the button says [Send]
  or [Cancel] ?
