Me and Chris Morgan changed it to this because we were sick of people pasting pages and pages of terminal output into the What works or What doesn't work boxes of the test data which is NOT where it belongs. The information in test data should be written in plain English, not pastes of lots of (mostly useless) terminal output which just looks awful and isn't any use to most users of the AppDB.
I agree with point 2 but the problem is most AppDB submitters just... too stupid to be able to use some sense or judgement about what they are asked to actually put in the test reports.
What you'd rather change it to would make the previous situation much, much worse so under no circumstances should it be changed to that though.

Then i would vote for a kind of extra field in which users can paste their crash/debug output , but that field wouldn't get sent into the appdb. Something like that should be possible i guess. Otherwise i fear in many cases i cannot really judge if the test result lots are valid or not......
