16476	Enhancment - VBoxBugReport to include guest logs, optional components	Socratis		"VBoxBugReport seems to be a great information collecting tool. However, as it stands right now, I believe that there is a vital piece of information missing: the __Guest Logs__. It should be trivial to include them along with the __Guest.vbox__ and the __GuestProperties__. The whole subdirectory with the 4 logs.

On the other hand, under Windows, there is information included that is not always necessary for basic troubleshooting. For example, on my system, a typical report will include:
* 17 MB of setupapi.dev.log.
* 7 MB of setupapi.app.log.
* The whole Windows update history.
That alone makes the size of the compressed report almost 1.5 MB, which makes it not attachable to the forums.

So, please also consider the possibility of adding command line switches to control the output of the VBoxBugReport tool:
* `-m` or`--minimal` for the really bare minimal information like Guest.vbox and Guest logs,
* `-n` or`--network` for the minimal plus networking,
* `-u` or`--usb` for the minimal plus USB,
* `-b` or `--basic` (that's the default option) a combination of ""`-m -n -u`"" and
* `-f` or`--full` for the complete (as is now) report.
