For example, we might need to join process' user and mount namespaces and run
rpm there to get packaging information. We usually gather packaging information
post-mortem but this is impossible if the process was the only process in its
namespaces.

ABRT team will definitely want to contribute to systemd-coredump and building
entire systemd is a bit slow and complex. Another point is that
systemd-coredump & coredumpctl uses systemd internal functions and that might
make patches harder to backport to older releases (we have some legacy
customers). There might be a problem to install & test our changes due to
conflicts with the installed systemd. And there are probably more points.

However, this is not a must. I would be just happier if I were not forced to
patch systemd :)
