Description
**Description**
While reporting another issue #605 , devs are having a hard time reproducing it and thus felt a need for easier and accurate issue.
**Solution**
Devs need access to
1. Installation summary

- usage heuristics
- error reports if any
2. Concise info about the issue
- relevant screenshots
- title / description
- usage info i.e. what type of projects / tech in use etc.
- report issue button can be made available in the UI status bar next to tip of the day using an issue icon
3. Report issue directly from IDE
- reporter connects with GithHub OAuth from IDE
- Creates issue and selects appropriate check boxes to include relevant info describe in 1 and 2 ( by default they should be selected )
4. Help with Triage
- To help triage such issues, they should be auto marked with an unique label.
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue proposes installation summaries, issue details, a status-bar report button, GitHub OAuth, issue creation, and automatic labels within the Eclipse IDE. No files, tests, or entry points are named; the work is complete when these reporting and triage requirements are implemented and usable from the IDE.
