This user will do whatever his distro tells him to do, which is almost
certainly something *other* than what a kernel.org kernel should do.
If he's running Ubuntu, it should do whatever Ubuntu does. If he's
on Fedora Core, it should poke the RedHat bugzilla, and so on.
If he's running a kernel.org kernel, it's probably safe to assume *some*
level of clue
This was actually just an example circunstance of why somebody would
not report a bug. Dozens of other circunstances may be given, and it
just illustrates why would be good to have those bug reports without
user interaction. Of course I can go to bugzilla and fill a report
upon a bug, but I wouldn't care to have bug reports being sent from my
servers automatically, if it's an option. This would ensure that even
bug report from non-caring users are, well, reported.
