Description

If the bug is about a crash but doesn’t contain a Signature or a Socorro ID in one of the comments, we could set "stackwanted" and tell the reporter how to get it (from about:crashes).

Research direction

Start by locating the crash-bug detection and Bugzilla metadata update paths, then inspect how comments are checked for a Signature or Socorro ID. The work is done when qualifying crash bugs without either value receive the "stackwanted" flag and the reporter is told to retrieve crash details from about:crashes.
