Thanks, from my experience with desktop apps in managed language I alwas added a global catch for crashes that were not caught or can't be caught, there I was writing the details in a log file. Then I had a menu entry for submitting a bug report, a popup would open and the user had the option to include the log file with the exception information and details like operating system, runtime version etc. The only thing that was bringing down this app in the higher level language(it was an Adobe AIR app in Action Script 3) was the freaking Web View , because was a wrapper over WebKit and that was C++.

This days doing backend dev I am forced to move stuff in a different process but most stuff I use I prefer to use binaries then libraries , for example for resizing an image instead of using the built in image library that crashes sometimes and brings the script down I install image magic on the server and write a script for resizing an image then call that script and check it's output , sometimes I had to use the timeout linux program to kill the program if it gets stuck on some input file.

If I were to create that image resize library in Rust I would attempt to catch everything , including panics and return it as a error result(so only system crashes would be uncaught)
