# Can plugin vendors compellingly demonstrate how better crash forensics facilitated by OOPP would improve plugin quality? Some sub-questions | |||
#* What information would vendors include in specially-tailored reports that UAs don't already have in their own crash databases? | |||
#* The bugReportURL can be updated arbitrarily frequently, but only before a crash: not at the time of a crash. What additional (not recorded by UAs) pre-crash data would help plugin vendors in debugging? | |||
# The bugReportURL is created per plugin instance. However, there may be multiple plugin instances per web page. In this situation, if UAs can't reliable determine which '''instance''' had code executing on its behalf at the time of the crash, would plugin vendors still be able to extract useful data from a bugReportURL from '''any''' instance (not necessary the one executing at crash time)? | |||
