Bugzilla itself (since 4.2.5) already rejects any attempt against disabled 
versions. So even without this patch, DrKonqi users won't be able to create 
crash report against disabled versions in the end. From developers POV, you 
don't need to worry about that.

The problem is usability for users. I'm not sure this reused error dialog is 
more informative than the existing one in 
https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=78600&action=edit. So I'm against this 
patch in its current simple form.

As said in [1][2], I'm working on a patch for the usability improvement and 
plan to make it into 4.11. I will create a review request today or tomorrow.
