https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+filebug?no-redirect=
works. However, I have enough issues already without having to bookmark
a link
(http://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/PACKAGENAME/+filebug?no-redirect),
fill in the packagename, and file the bug.

In the past I've always been quite active in filing Unbuntu bugs, see:

but adding one more hoop to go through is pretty much testing my
'goodwill' with regards to further bug reporting.
