This only applies to crashes, though, which are already special in a
way that they are uniform, can be clearly identified and filtered by
tag or description, and get reported/duplicated automatically.

I think the real bug reports are a much harder problem to tackle;
obviously we don't have a magic way to auto-dupe bugs. (Patches
appreciated, of course! :-) )
