Sure, I'll wordsmith this a little.

Need? Nah. The exclude markers are not even acknowledged by the current
implementation.

This was more of my line of thinking, along with the thought that some
folks may use bug reporting internally, where they have A) more control
over which extensions/tools are in use, and B) less concern about
sharing things like remote URLs, branch names, etc. and may want to go
for a blocklist as opposed to a safelist, to make it easier for their
support folks to diagnose.

Yeah, I think this is a good point. I'll try to figure out how to reword
the commit message, and take another look at the sample include/exclude
change I made to see where I can omit entirely.
