I often get reports with just “Breaks Community Rules” and no additional context. This is because Voyager automatically sets the mandatory report reason as “Breaks Community Rules” without actually adding a reason. However, it's often not clear why a post would break those rules and which rule would be broken.

Ideally voyager would display the sidebar and a field to enter the reason for the report for the user.

That could also work. It's certainly a lot simpler than my proposal in the GitHub issue.

If the API provided rules as an array rather than a single big chunk of text then frontends could present a list to users when reporting.
