Bug Description
Apport refuses to send crash reports for the packages responsible for binaries in the blacklist (/etc/apport/
However, for statistical purposes, it would still be wise to send these to daisy.ubuntu.com. This will let us understand just how well Mozilla is addressing these issues relative to the rest of the software in Ubuntu.

The difficulty here is how to let people choose whether to send the error report. If we put up Ubuntu's usual error alert, that would mean there were two error alerts in succession, Mozilla's and ours. I think there should be just one, but that confirming submission in it should send the report to both places.
Mozilla's error alert is more tailored to them, because it includes a comment field, easy inclusion of the URL you were on, and the ability to be notified of updates. So I think we should patch their crash dialog to send reports to us too.
