Description
Using #1212 we would be able to extract diagnostics data from users in a standardized format.
This could be utilized to:
- Automatically report errors to a debug server (opt-in)
- Reproduce the error in a testing environment (VM)
- Group similar errors automatically

Research direction
Start by reviewing issue #1212, since this proposal depends on its standardized diagnostics data. Determine how opt-in error reporting, VM-based reproduction, and automatic grouping would fit together; the work is done when those three intended uses have a concrete, agreed implementation scope and testing plan.
