Unity's Diagnostics subpanel is provided by activity-log-manager-
control-center. There's a standalone version provided by activity-log-
manager. (For code, See src/diagnostic-widgets.c)

activity-log-manager is mostly about configuring zeitgeist, but GNOME
doesn't really use zeitgeist. I think the only reason it's still
installed by default is to benefit Unity users.

GNOME's Privacy panel does have an "Automatic Problem Reporting" section
to manage sending error reports to Fedora's abrt. (See panels/privacy
/cc-privacy-panel.c and privacy.ui)

I think there's a decent chance that a patch to add a compile-time
option to enable support for whoopsie (Ubuntu's service) could be merged
upstream. I mean Fedora really wants other distros to use abrt but I
don't think that has happened yet so it's still a distro-specific
feature. See openSUSE where this has been proposed for years:
https://hackweek.suse.com/projects/integrate-abrt-to-opensuse
(Incidentally, I believe SUSE uses Canonical's apport!)
