I would phrase it a little differently: existing interface is not
designed for typical usage.

If this was userspace filesystem, the user may want to restart it immediately 
without waiting for the window to be sorted out, but if this was pdfgrep 
running from a script over collection of documents including known buggy files, 
may be uninterested in as much as looking at the command line one more time. 
So what would help is adding under other controls a few simple checkboxes with 
obvious logic: 
[ ] Automatically accept these choices for this...
- [x] ...Application.
- [x] ...Problem Type.
- [x] ...during this session only.
With possibility to reset this somewhere in setup, of course.
But without any context at all what apport-gtk window asks is meaningless, thus 
common sense suggests showing at least executable path and package name right 
away, without opening anything.
