I don't know how it would be a two-click operation unless the Debian 
bug report was already imported into Launchpad, but I agree with 
defaulting to Ubuntu. <https://launchpad.net/bugs/50018>

The bug is ranked as High, but there are many Critical and High 
importance bugs ahead of it. If you think it should be Critical, please 
discuss it with Steve or Kiko.
