(1) The self-destruction should happen with a signal that does not
indicate a non-deliberate crash (i. e. one that does not cause the
kernel to dump core). SIGTERM or SIGKILL are quite appropriate and don't
cause apport reports.

(2) If you really need a 'crashy' signal like SIGSEGV and want to ignore
certain apport reports, you are welcome to add an apport hook to tracker
to ignore those completely. See /usr/share/doc/apport/package-hooks.txt
for the documentation and /usr/share/apport/package-hooks/usplash.py for
a particular example that ignores some crashes in usplash.
