Description of the need
In https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/5791 we are looking into providing a list of enabled modules. This however was in response to a perceived need for site information for debugging.
As in Q: "My site is producing fatal errors" A: "What modules you have installed?"
But I find that frequently other questions accompany, like "What Backdrop/PHP/MySQL version, which theme are you using, is Javascript aggregated, etc etc"
Noting that the Status Report page provides a lot of that info already, but is not printable, and may be too much info in some situations
Proposed solution
A link/button on the status Report page to print a report. I propose a radio with two options: "full", and "Basic" (or maybe "Safe"). When you click the button you get the Status report info in printable format, with added stuff like enabled/disabled modules, themes, layout, etc etc. "Full" prints everything on the Status Report page, "Basic/Safe" would be default, and print only stuff that shouldn't put your site at risk if you post it in the Forums.
An example of a similar effort for WP is this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/website-information-report/
Alternatives that have been considered
A View of enabled modules alone is being considered for core in https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/5791
