Apport currently has a very cool package.hook mechanism for the crash
reporter that can be customized on a per package basis to provide
information a triager/developer is likely to ask for.

I realize that I am packing feature requests on pitti...but;)  I wonder
if it would be possible to implement a cli that calls package.hook so a
bug reporter could easily provide the information triagers are likely to
ask for.
