Yes that would indeed be a problem, worst thing is that people would actually try to abuse the system.
I agree that just helping the development should be enough, but apparently the majority of the players don't feel the same way
Perhaps hiding it from the patch notes could help, but I think it would hardly get the effect it should have, while giving it to all players or just one might also pose some problems.
If enough people agree that this could help one of them might come up with a possible solution for the problem.
Right now I think the first X players getting a reward could be a good solution, if you set the amount on 5 for example people won't waste time telling their friends about it. The only problem is of course that some people that sincerely want to help out but are too late would be left out then.
Another possible solution could be a "reported bugs" tab in the help section. The moment a bug report has been seen a dev could just put the subject in that section (so no explanation about it so it's just a couple seconds work). If you report something that is already there you don't get a reward. You could also combine the two solutions.
