Details

For regular macOS apps, the Apple crash reporter collects the app's crashes and submits them to Apple. That way, Apple hears about any crashes in system library code.
Firefox has its own crash reporter which handles crashes. Apple never sees our crash reports.
Some of the crashes that Firefox experiences are caused by bugs in system library code. At the moment it's up to us to identify those crashes and contact Apple about them.
It would be nice if there was a more direct channel to Apple so that Apple could help identify these cases and fix them proactively.

This would be nice to have.
