Even if I shouldn't consider auto-reports as bad, why does somebody want
to run a crash daemon on e.g. a real-time environment that needs all
resources and that should run stable?

What if a bug doesn't crash or if that auto-thingy is buggy itself?

What about feature requests, e.g. asking to compile a package with
additional flags?

Btw. don't recommend just to click two times ok! The user first needs to
remove passwords and other sensible information from a bug report.
