Title:
  "Problem already known" window pops under, no launcher entry

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The "Problem already known" prompt, which pops up after submitting an
  apport report for a known crash, pops UNDER the current active window
  (which in my typical use case tends to be a Firefox window since I
  often submit whatever crash reports I receive in the morning before
  checking news/email/whatever). It also doesn't show up on the Unity
  launcher.

  This leads to me forgetting about the submission until I close the
  browser window to find the prompt sitting there waiting. This is
  suboptimal since I tend to close the browser as I'm about to log out
  or otherwise leave the computer, but now when I dismiss the window I
  have to wait for my browser to start up again so I can close it. It
  would be better I think to either make this popup more obvious or
  allow a user to dismiss it without opening a browser window.
