Description Ken Fallon 2017-02-16 08:30:22 UTC
In some cases it is obvious (eg kate, kmail) but in others it depends on where the dialogue is been used.

Presents a list of 502 Applications. 

It is not reasonable to expect anyone, neither mortal or kde developers to know which "application" to choose. 

Possible solutions:
- Add tool to allow bug reporter to identify the application/componenet/widget/libary that is causing the problem.

Please report this to the applications where it happens.

For example, when I use "Report Bug..." with Dolphin, the "dolphin" product is automatically selected. This should be the default with all applications.
