If you want to suggest that a similar implementation be included in Emacs, it is enough to mention the existence of the solution. You could also describe your proposed implementation, while you are at that, as that gives ideas for our internal implementation. But quoting a long documentation string adds nothing to the bug report, and looks like a shameless plug to me. It also makes the bug report harder to read. Please don't clutter the bug tracker with such useless information.
