I've no strong opinion about that. I think we should have a "send a bug"
item somewhere, in the applications menu accessories category for
example

Looking at the crasher bugs we get at the moment most of them are
already duplicates, using apport on stable will likely flood launchpad
of bugs we already know about, I think that not installing apport on
feisty makes sense then
