Being able to correlate when a crash occurs with other event in logfiles
is usually pretty important. In the bug I linked to, the person
attempting to diagnose the issue had a hypothesis that the bug had
occurred during an upgrade and not after the reboot; however, the only
way to verify when the crash actually occurred was to look at the date
stamp on the crashfile itself to confirm or deny that hypothesis.

I share your concern with not overwhelming triagers with all the
information available when a bug is reported; perhaps the dropped
information could be combined into a separate attachment (e.g.
CrashDetails) so that it doesn't clutter the bug's description but is
available should it be necessary for diagnosing the bug?
