Bug Description

When choosing a name for a PPA, it would be great to see a preview of the URLs to that PPA: The Launchpad URL and / or the archive URL.

I think I'll go with the project creation approach. As seen at https://launchpad.net/projects/+new, it shows the base URL with a textbox to enter the final component. Rather intuitive, and no JS required.
