Title:
  ubuntu-bug doesn't provide a way of just getting the URL to report a
  bug

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  I use more than one browser profile, only one of which is logged in to
  Launchpad.  When using ubuntu-bug to report a bug, it will open the
  page in whichever one happened to be focused last.  If this browser
  profile isn't logged in to Launchpad, it will redirect me to a login
  page.  It is impossible, as far as I can tell, to reconstruct the
  original URL in order to copy/paste it in to a browser profile which
  _is_ logged in to Launchpad.

  It would be good if ubuntu-bug could either display the URL it is
  opening before it opens it in the UI.

  (An acceptable workaround for me (as I generally launch ubuntu-bug
  from a terminal) would be to write the URL to stdout.)
