I cannot tell for sure about the overall amount of bugs in Launchpad, but in my own 25 years of software development i dont see how generally requesting dmesg for each and every bug report would have been necessary or helpful. For my concrete situation and launchpad reports, i can tell that at the same time i havent even got any answer for any bug i reported about thunderbird so far… so its not even looked at by maintainers but available to the whole world. (No complain, theres sure enough to do besides caring for a single users rare issues! Only an observation from my perspective) But yeah, there might be insights that i am lacking that make it a good fit. Im not going to insist in changes if you see it as necessary the way it is. I know what to do to work around it now.
