1. EF decided not to collect stack traces that stem from arbitrary external plugins for privacy reasons.

Thanks.
I believe now that we have reached a point of the discussion when we all agree that it seems impossible for users to make a difference between Eclipse and 3rd-party plugin, there is probably a room to open a bit more the thing to 3rd-party. I believe it would be good to also collect stacks and error from 3rd-party plugins, and show them in a different, may be private if necessary, report.
WDYT?

Speaking as board member that was present for the "call for home" policy: We cannot gather data for anyone besides eclipse foundation based projects since it has privacy and legal liability issues connected to it.

Speaking as a 3rd party vendor/contributor:
Knowing the above we can't just enable gathering of *all* data, but I would love if we could somehow explicitly agree that our bundles gets included in the tracing (i.e. org.jboss.*) to help improve eclipse ecosystem overall.
