Agree.
But on the other hand, we have to admit that asking bug reporters to
submit additional data/logs about their bugs in almost every other 
report is a lost of time for developers.

I am / was aware of that and I really appreciate your contribution. I 
find  (I'm not claiming that this fact matters for the universe itself) 
your contribution most valuable as I have learned a lot from your work, 
especially from your constructive approach.

I hope your will is strong enough (see above).:-)
Anyway, it seems that forcing "apport way" burdens others too, so maybe 
we need to be endure a little bit more to see how it develops and maybe 
we shall see some kind  of "middle way" for this.
