I'm not sure where you should put this, so let me explain why this information
would be useful and you can direct me to the right place.

Most of our developers have high-speed internet connections.  However some
users use slower connections.  Without a way to track this information, we
remain oblivious to their concerns until a saavy enough user complains.

This specific bug requests information about people using their mobile
connection as their main point of access to the internet.  This is important
because mobile developers may tend to dismiss this use case as insignificant.  

Maybe they would be right.  But until we have data, we have no way to measure
the significance.

The larger issue, though, is that we should have data on users and their
connection speeds.  Until we have this, we have no idea what percentage of
users find the "heavier" interfaces that we're providing too unweildy to use.
