Bug Description
Lots of bugs on Launchpad have a ton of "me too" comments. These are perceived as unhelpful. On the other hand, they may help in figuring out exactly the scope of a particular bug. It would be nice if bug reporters had an automatic way to report "this bug affects me too" and to report their hardware/software combination, without generating an extra comment that clutters up the bug page. For example, in Ubuntu, submitting the "is the bug you're reporting one of these" form could lead to a page with instructions on how to run apport-cli and attach hardware info. That might discourage people from spamming the comments.
