             Summary: Clarify data to be copied from "View data" dialog to Jira
                 Key: NETBEANS-872
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-872
             Project: NetBeans
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Karl Richter


After experiencing a bug and clicking on "Review and report problem", I faced a 
dialog saying

```
Please help Apache NetBeans by reporting this problem to our bug tracking 
system. Click View Data button, copy the exception and submit it together with 
detailed information about what you were trying to achieve before the problem 
occurred in JIRA.
```

The dialog which was opened after clicking "View data" has 2 tabs "UI Log" and 
"IDE Log" and "UI Log provides a few dozens of views in a drop down menu, which 
means that there're about 50 possible pieces of information to copy. It should 
be clear which ones ought to be transmitted to Jira or whether this sentence is 
meant as "you can search in the information and extract the stacktrace 
yourself".

Afaik, there was a function for automatic duplicate search and upload for the 
retired Bugzilla instance. If there're plans to get this back, I'd appreciate a 
link, however I wouldn't mark this issue as duplicate of such an eventual 
report since improving the feedback should be quick and can help to collect 
more issues until the crucial 9.0 is released.
