Bug Description

In order to reach the advanced bug search page, here are all the steps to follow:

1. Go to http://launchpad.net
2. Click on the bugs button
3. Enter a search term
4. Click on the advanced search link
5. Re-enter the search term and other options

Instead, there are a couple improvements which could be made:

1. The search page should contain a link to directly access the advanced search.
2. Clicking on the advanced search link from the search results should preserve the search term.

One way of fixing this (together with bug 60332) would be to make the advanced search form consist of expandable sections in the simple search form.
