(here I go again about MS) When an app crashes under Windows a minidump is collected and the user is given the option to send the dump info to Microsoft for collection and analysis (despite popular belief, this analysis does actually happen!). Such a thing would be really cool under Linux as it would allow the aggregation of a huge amount of information and allow the developers to spot the bugs that most require attention, eg "hmmm... 1000 reports in the last 24 hours of a crash at line 42... that's probably worth looking at!". Like Windows, it would also allow a response to be returned when the crash is submitted like "This bug is resolved in the latest version. Please upgrade.". You still don't need the symbols on your PC though.
