Just wanted to add also, that in case the version stuff is a problem,
entering the bugs can be limited of course. I think the big thing with 4.8
crashes might be that they're already fixed and there's a solution available
(upgrade), in which case that information could be delivered directly to the
user (though when collecting all the crashes to a separate crash reporting
system, it'll give nice stats how common the crash is) without even adding
that information to the bug-tracker.
