From bug 294957 comment 13:

Unfortunately it does not work this way in some cases.

When it works:
1) Help->Report Bug or Enhancement

When it does not work:
1) Error Log-> Right Mouse over log entry -> Report as Bug -> Report to: Eclipse.org – Subversive SVN Team....
In last case everything set in preProcess() become completely ignored.

This method is probably useless because there seems no way to obtain stack trace from the Mylyn status through the public API.
And even if I call contribution.appendToDescription("My additional information") in process() method context, I still get Mylyn's description overwritten which is slightly contradicting to the method name semantics.
