When reporting kernel crash user gets a window with a single very long line/description, a progress icon that actually shows that there is something happening in background (which is not) and useless log. It took me a while to figure that nothing is going to happen and I'm only supposed to click the close button. Also nothing shows in main window that this issue can't be reported again and user can think that he haven't reported yet and will clikc on it again.

There are two problems:
- wrapping the description
- stop the spinner if no action is running

Bugzilla seems to have eaten the attachment - it still downloads... as an image of a big black rectangle :(

I edited "reason" element to contain a very long line, then opened an oops problem directory (via "report-gtk -x DIR"). The reason element is wrapping. Hopefully it means this is fixed now.

I can't reproduce it with current GUI either.

Unfortunately, I don't see what else I can do with this BZ. Closing with INSUFFICIENT_DATA.

Please reopen if similar problem persists.
In this case, please attach a tarball of the problem directory on which it happens.
