In CDT ( 2020=03) the "report Bug"  is hokey .
It really does not do much until user is "registered". 
It gives an impression that "nobody really cares " what USER is experiencing.
It should be bug reporting , not collecting user’s data.
That should be voluntary, not mandatory.  
Most users will report real bug, not just to post something . 
Besides - the user is IN ECLIPSE CDT version OS etc. so why not collect all this and NOT ask user to fill it in BEFORE it is passed to bugzila ?

THIS IS NOT FIXED IN 2020-03
