Spec should define a processing model

[clelland]

From w3c/reporting#169 (comment):

We should define some processing algorithm for each of the above? We describe what the reports are, but there is no guidance on processing.

This spec describes a report format, but no processing model for generating or sending them. That should be described in some amount of useful detail.

I wonder if the proposers are familiar with this work, and if it has thoughts on how it could inform this proposal.

It looks like that paper deals with sanitizing and anonymizing data from native call stacks and core dumps -- this proposal sends far less information, just reporting the fact that a crash occurred at all, with essentally no details about the running process other than a very coarse-grained reason for the crash. (And if the crash was due to a bug in native code, then there is no other information attached at all)
