Would metrics on kernel warnings be useful?

I had a chat with Stefan at the UDS after party and he suggested that
kernel warnings might be a useful data point to capture in the error
tracker (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker).

I would be willing to implement this once we have the ability to send
non-critical information with the next regular crash report. This way,
users do not get a dialog each time this happens.

So, would this be useful? :)

Would the "WARNING:" line alone be sufficient, or would you also want a
list of modules, log files, etc?

Is the "WARNING:" line a sufficiently unique string to bucket instances of
the same warning together?

Thanks!
