You don't need to report bugs from emacs -Q.
You need to try and reproduce them from emacs -Q, is all.

Emacs bugs are supposed to be reported from the same session that
discovered the bugs, which is rarely "emacs -Q".

Then exists a doku bug, it's told
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug. If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':

It's not a bug. It is easier to debug a problem if it can be
reproduced starting with "emacs -Q". But there's no requirement to
report the bug (with the recipe) from "emacs -Q".

Well, the point is: present implementation clutters reports with directives useless for the receiver.
Better not to insert that into the report, but open a help-buffer, when reporting starts.
Plus an option to disable that help-buffer.

They are not useless for me, when I'm the receiver.

So let's consider a typical beginning of a bug report when sent not by a core developer,
let's take bug#13787. It starts:
This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org. Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address. After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgement at that address.
Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug. If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':
;;;;;;;
You really mean that kind of info is useful for you?

Yes. It tells me that the person who reports the bug didn't censor
her report in any way.

And you are not afraid making her look somehow foolish that way?

This text is not part of the bug-report buffer any more. I changed it
a few months ago, it's now in a display property, so while you see it,
it's not really there: it won't be in the sent email, and it won't be
present if you copy&paste the text either.
