Bug Description
If I am subscribing someone else to a bug, on the non-ajax form, if I type in the LP user name correctly and hit enter, it subscribes them. On the ajax form, it shows the possible matches (sometimes more than one even if I typed an exact match) and I have to click on in.
This may not sound like much, but the annoyance adds up when I am working through several dozen backports requests and I get extra work for each time I have to subscribe ubuntu-archive to a bug.

I agree it would be nice to submit the subscribe request on exact matches for lp user name. But there's just too much UI work pending for anyone from the bugs team to get to this within the next couple months.
It's a relatively simple thing to do if someone is looking for a bug to work on to get started with Launchpad development. Launchpad is open source; see https:/ /dev.launchpad. net/Getting for how to get code and get started.
