KDE have brand new Dr. Konqui - in term of features it's quite similar to
what ABRT offers but it's KDE only. Still I think it's better to use it
for KDE crashes. It's part of 4.3 (in rawhide) - so F12 stuff.

But try it - there are still some bugs. Some nice features are starring
usefulness of bug (eg. no backtraces), duplicates etc. with nice easy 
to use GUI for users.

For sysconfigs we have SCTCPBRT now, it's more BRT than your BRT :-)
Actually it could be part of your BRT if you're interested, it's our
internal tool to report sysconfigs bugs.
