Does a bug tracker with a floating web widget exist?

Back in 2004 I created a bug tracker for my thesis.

The special thing was that there was a floating layer to report bugs - It would automatically send data on users' browser, path taken and more.

I was wondering if something like that exists today? And if it does not, would you be interested in one - probably as an extension to existing trackers.

I've been running BugMuncher (http://bugmuncher.com) for about 4 years now, it captures user's browser/os info, path through the site, and allows them to include a highlighted screenshot of the webpage.

Thanks, I'll take a look at Bugmuncher and Bugherd.
