Description

If the user is not running the latest version of Quicksilver, the crash reporter dialogue should recommend that the user upgrades to the latest version.
To save on bandwidth and work for the devs sifting through the crash reports, it should not offer to upload crash reports unless the user is on the latest version of Quicksilver.

Research direction

Start by locating Quicksilver's crash reporter dialog and the existing version-check and upload-flow entry points. Trace how the installed version is compared with the latest release; done means older versions are prompted to upgrade and cannot upload crash reports, while the latest version retains the upload option.
