Bug report form is not resilient against a trivial network failure: you easily loose what you wrote

[Teo]

- I connected through a bad wifi connection
- I wrote a complete bug report
- I submitted it
- something went wrong, probably because of the bad wifi connection and I received the error response "bad request"

Expected:
=> by hitting the Back button of the browser, I should be brought back to the page with the form, with the text I typed. That's what happens with EVERY decent web form in any decent browser

Observed:
=> I was brought back to the page one step before, where you only input the summary.

A decent standard-compliant design of the web page can avoid this. When hitting the back button, if the history hasn't been manipulated nor any nasty things have been done such as unnecessary redirects or ajax calls, the browser automatically remembers the contents of the form. But if the back button doesn't bring you to the same page where you were prior to submitting, the browser can't do that, and that means the site is badly designed.

Ages ago, I used to always copy everything I was going to submit and paste it into a text editor before sending in case such things would happen, but it's been like 5 years since that's become totally unnecessary on all decent webs. This is totally Launchpad's fault
