> What can we do to get this feature into reportbug?
* did you update the patch to include the new contact field in
distribution.json and not hardcode the email address?
* did you test what happen in offline mode and fix the eventual regression?
i did a quick check on the number of bugs reported in a week, and over
the 600+ bugs filed, less than 30 where for a stable release (either
stretch or previous ones); i think you may also clarify that prompt,
as i suspect users will get rather confused "how am i supposed to know
if this is a security update? i just apt-get upgrade the system and
now this package doesnt work" kind of scenario.
