It would be very useful for an apport hook to be able to mark a bug as
private by default.
Ideally, I'd like this facility for upstart since if stateful re-exec
fails, upstart will attempt to write a dump of the internal state both
when running as PID 1 and as a Session Init when managing a desktop
session for a non-priv user.
However, we have no way of knowing whether the internal state dump might
contain sensitive information (for example, a job may hard-code a
password in it).
Currently, the best we can do is simply tag any bugs apport raises to
denote that 'the file exists', but ideally, we'd allow it to be uploaded
securely since the internal state will provide the best information to
help us identify what went wrong.
