Bug Description
In https:/
To my horror, it posted "org.gnome.shell command-history" and "favorites" in the "GsettingsChang
https:/
It's _completely_ reasonable to see:
* enabled-extensions
* org.gnome.shell.* diffs
* org.gnome.desktop.* diffs
But it is _NOT_ acceptable (privacy reasons) to automatically harvest a user's favorites in the gnome-shell, nor their command histories.
_IF_ we must harvest for bug-data gathering, it MUST come in a secure mechanism that is private only to submitter + the assigned dev.

I agree. I've never seen that happen before either, till now.
