Bug Description

Reported a bug in a wrong project "Lubuntu" ("software-center" project)
Then found out the correct package was the "debian-installer" in "ubuntu" Project.
When I search for "Ubuntu" on the main Page i get "direct hit: ubuntu"

But in the search-window that opens when i edit a bug's project i cant find ubuntu.
(This is when i click on the little yellow pen-symbol of the wrong project to change it)
I could find lots of projects with the name "ubuntu" somewhere in the name but not the base Project.

In the drop-down menu (little arrow left of projects name)
If i enter "ubuntu" it says there's no package ubuntu
----
By filing a new bug I found out that I'd have to change the "Target" to "Distribution: Ubuntu"
This also makes the yellow pen-symbol disappear

This is missleading for bugs that have been posted to a "Project" because the Pen-symbol search box wont inform you about the "distributions" and "Ubuntu" appears as a "Project" result in the main search.
