What does the selected object do in the bug report form?

I was reporting an LSL compiler error the other night and noticed a thing in the bug report form that allows you to select an object.

What does that do? There is no explanation of it.

What I would like it to do is attach a copy of the object including all it's linked prims and inventory to the bug report. In my case, there was no way to attach the bad script to the report, so I had to put it in a reply to the email acknowlegement.

I could well imagine problems with objects that could only be demonstrated using the complete object, so it would be good to be able to attach them to bug reports.

It only includes the ID of the object selected in the report. It turns out that in most cases this isn't as helpful as originally hoped. What you did was correct (replying to the email with the script). In cases where the full object is needed QA will usually follow up and contact the bug reporter for more information or a copy of the object.
