New Advanced ‘Report a Bug’ option for development !?

Would it make sense for developers & coding, to send a Bug Report by clicking a ‘Advanced Report a Bug’ button? Including :

Blender-2023-xx-xx-xxxxxx.ips files, generated locally

Terminal (Mac/Linux) or Console(Windows) errors

maybe the bugged blend file

if possible directing to dev. / dev.-teams responsible for the used OS or bug category.

by default or by user choice??

Means, when you discover a bug and try to replicate it, that you can switch on an option for Advanced Bug Reporting, that includes the errors via the above files/ local reports in the following Bug Report.

You would open/send the usual bug report PLUS the generated error reports & files, if the bug can be replicated. Plus, for sure, the users comments on that.

That’s what I discovered the last two years, what is missing most of the time in the bug reports. Then the dev’s start asking for it, to solve the bug. Most usual users have no clue where are all the local reports and errors are saved local.

I my opinion it would make sense for time management, clearer reports for the Dev’s and less commenting back and forth to get the proper infos.

I hope that makes sense!?
