This is a bug of ABRT again. The crash should have been already reported
without asking anything. (Not going to discuss some security claims.)
You could just look up BZ(*) with the person's bugreport at that moment.
(*) Maybe such mass bugreports should not end up in BZ as the first place.
And how are you going to stop the user _then_ creating a manual report
with the random copy/pasted message _after_ the automatic report has
reported it without them noticing? How is the maintainer to know it's a
dupe without minidebuginfo? Your answer appears to be insufficient. :)
