Comment (by zooko):

 I agree with gdt.

 Once we've fixed all such places in our code, so that we never
 intentionally display a Python backtrace to a user, then the behavior of
 the apport hook may not be inappropriate.

 Any case where our code displays a Python backtrace to a user should be
 ticketed with the {{{error}}} keyword:
