It's obviously annoying for some people, but for anyone else that has complained, I don't think it has \
risen to the level of disgust and contempt that you show it in your very first post.  Based on the \
hyperbole you used in your initial post, it seems you came here to pick a fight, and now you act \
surprised when you find you got one.

We know some users are bothered about it, but we know more users are bothered by general crashiness, \
which this crash handler has been very helpful at reducing.  The project coders have discussed the \
trade-off and have made a decision to annoy a few users in the hope of making the overall app better.

You have an opinion that you feel strongly about, but that doesn't make you right.

And 2 other factual corrections: 1) amaroK is not part of KDE, it is part of KDE-extragear, very \
different things, and 2) Microsoft does invoke an automatic crash handler and tries to phone home the \
info.  At least amaroK let's you see what is being sent.
