It would be nice if the framework recorded its initialization time, then
figured out the elapsed time when a crash happens and report that as a
key/value pair.
The rationale for putting this in Breakpad itself is that uptime is
sometimes an interesting piece of data for crashes, but it's hard for a
client to send it themselves because it can only be figured out after the
crash has happened, when running in-process code is dangerous. Clients can
record launch time, and then figure it out after the fact, but that adds an
extra level indirection to get the information they actually want.
