Allowing them to type "bugreport step --step-in" or "bugreport step --step-over" would be really nice. Right now I send people a python script that enables logging, dumps the code in and around the source line with disassembly, and creates a zip file with the current object file and optional debug info file (dSYM or external symbol file).

I am guessing the reproducer wouldn't help us with any of the user files. We often need to see the binaries, or enable some logging when the user repros the bug. Users don't often attach all of the files that are needed, nor do they know what logs to enable and how to attach them. I am not up to date on exactly what reproducers do, but I would guess that they don't save off just the required files or enable any logging and attach logs?
