[cross-project-issues-dev] Error Reporting Tool Improvement

Marcel,

The error reporting tool is extremely cool and very useful!

One aspect that could likely be improved significantly is the computation of the "blamed" projects.  In particular I'm having to triage many reports such as this one:

https://dev.eclipse.org/recommenders/committers/confess/#/problems/54f9b544e4b0a38aecd742e2/details

No doubt that's because Oomph is on the stack:



I would like to suggest that the "blame" logic should consider that Display.readAndDispatch processes events of arbitrary origin.  As such, nothing below that point in the stack is likely contributing to any problem above that point in the stack.

Given that Oomph often starts a "background" dialog to perform tasks on startup, every possible problem that happens elsewhere in the IDE ends up in Oomph's triage bucket,  so the list I must triage is large to the point where I'm not sure it can ever be managed:

https://dev.eclipse.org/recommenders/committers/confess/#/problems/?projects=oomph&kinds=NORMAL&kinds=FREEZE&categories=UNCONFIRMED&page=1&size=100&sort=createdOn,desc

The duplicates are a bit annoying too, but you have some nice support for that already:

Kudos for creating this great technology!

Cheers,
Ed
