As part of the Ubuntu Error Tracker sprint this past week, we decided
against the implementation of this as it would not adequately address
the problem it set out to solve: providing a link between a user and a
developer when the developer needs to converse with someone a bit more
about the problem.
An input box that resulted in a description field in the database would
likely result in lots of "I don't know" type responses, with no ability
for the developer to follow up.
Instead, we will provide a checkbox in the server-side hooks page to
request that the next user to experience this particular crash report it
on Launchpad (if we're still in the development release). Apport will
talk to Daisy via its REST API to see if we are asking to report the
given StacktraceAddressSignature on Launchpad. If so, it will file this
on Launchpad with just the SAS and a tag that crash-digger can use to
identify and link this to an errors.ubuntu.com issue. When crash-digger
creates such a link, it will tell Daisy to notify the developer that
they now have a user they can communicate with.
