Bug Description

I suggest building into the OS itself a tool like Apport that automatically reports crashes to developpers. In addition to this tool, it would be excellent if an app or part of the phone could be dedicated to user suggestions. it is highly inconvenient to have to run to another machine to report a bug and I am convinced that Ubuntu would become amazing fast with a quick 'suggestion reporting app' built right into the phone. Us non programmers would love to give 'real world' suggestions....

It will probably be a separate app altogether.

Excellent. No other mobile OS cares what the users think nor gives them a quick way to give feedback so the potential of Ubuntu becoming the best by a long shot, in my opinion, depends on this feature and the ability to have users give, for free, their real-world opinions and bug reports. Thansk for not trashing the idea!

If this is a separate 'app' then it would need to be installed by default. I'm in favour of Wayne's proposal. Apport is a good model for bug reporting, but we need to think about how we'd implement the "suggestion" feature.
