I am routinely seeing this as well, I am getting regular (maybe once a day) crash notification and asked whether to submit a report. I say yes and it seems to be doing it but then just disappears. In /var/crash I see that I am getting colord crashed with SIGABRT in raise() for which there are already several reports with hundreds affected. Sometimes when reporting a bug one got a notification that it had already been reported, I wonder whether it is just that this message is getting lost.
