Useless #65

Ask CTR dev...

Also, once a report is submited, it's impossible to resubmit, retract, followup, etc., until when acr decides to allow you to do so again... so, again, useless.

Great tool to spam addon devs, though...

Right now the tool is anonymous so implanting these features would be a lot of work, as we'd need to add auth to ACR and the requests it hits.

Would you find the tool more useful if reports could be retracted or amended?

I'm forwarding info I got from addon devs: there's nowhere near enough info to make it an useful tool to report addon problems. Only they can tell you what it needs.

Obviously, the once only per version just adds to it, since updates can be a long way between and many things can happen in the meantime. But even from a user perspective there's a number of reasons you might want to send more than one report: additional info; problem got solved somehow; new problem arose; heck, you've reported to the wrong addon!...
