[Bug 964508] [NEW] whoopsie uploads crash reports, including core dumps, when on a 3G connection

[Evan Dandrea]

Public bug reported:

Currently, whoopsie attempts to upload crash reports whenever an
Internet connection is available. For binary applications, whoopsie also
uploads a core dump if this is the first time the crash has been seen.

We need to determine whether we want whoopsie to only send the crash
report when on a 3G connection, or if we want it to wait until it is on
a WiFi or Ethernet connection for sending both the crash report and core
dump.

Network Manager provides a DBus API for checking whether the default
route is over a 3G connection:
