Bug Description
Launchpad continues to advertise branches as being available as http:// whatever. This is painfully slow, and since it is the first experience of Bazaar for most new users, it presents a terrible first imprssion.
Bazaar has a server mode and an IANA registered port which it runs on. Launchpad should be running an instance of `bzr serve` to serve its branches, and all the URLs presented should be changed do bzr:// whatever.

This is a good idea. If it came down to a choice, I think I'd rather have bzr+http working though (see bug 165087).
Also, instead of advertising bzr:// URLs, we're intending to advertise branches using lp:/// URLs.
