Title:
  In-terminal crash report is far too long, containing full `bzr
  plugins` output

Status in Bazaar Version Control System:
  Fix Released
Status in “bzr” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “bzr” source package in Natty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Recently there was a change to including the full list of plugins, in
  `bzr plugins` style in the non-apport crash reporting output. (To see
  what I mean, run 'bzr assert-fail' using bzr.dev)

  This is most unhelpful, because it is very long indeed, and causes the
  traceback and exception message to scroll completely off the screen -
  in my environment `bzr plugins` is 87 lines long.

  I propose that it is important for developers that when an exception
  occurs, the exception message line remains on screen in reasonably
  sized terminals.

  What was the intent of adding the full plugin list? Some discussion on
  #bzr suggests that what was actually desired was a list of plugins
  currently violating their API requirements.
