I definitely agree .

A proper fix for this should show a preview of all the debugging information 
being submitted. The fix would allow the user to exclude any fields that can 
violate her privacy before submitting her bug report via the net.

well, showing to an common end user, all debugging information can be really 
scary. But we need to analyze and to distinguish type of informations that 
could touch to the user privacy , then ALWAYS ask him if he wanted to modify 
the informations (concealing them for instance)  but he needs to be aware that 
in some case the exact information is mandatory to investigate.
But we shouldn't allow complete removal of the information (just modification). 

in some case , private informations are embedded in the stack Trace.
Those cases are really difficult to address.

NOTE [for QA] : this bug importance should be set to High or Serious as
privacy is a really important subject for Users
