Bug Description

To reproduce:

 * go to a bug, and unfold a task
 * change the project name to a misspelling of a real project
 * also enter a comment to explain why you're changing it

What happens:
 * you're sent to +editstatus with some suggestions for the correct project name but with your carefully composed message gone

What should happen:
 * user data should not be lost - you could correct the project name inline, or preserve it when showing +editstatus

this sounds like bug 30861, but that's closed, and apparently about some different obsolete status field

Also, the page says "there are 2 errors" when there is apparently only one error, that the project name is wrong.

I'm marking this low because the unfolded form is deprecated and may well be removed in the near/medium term. Its retained for non-js browsers.

Changed in launchpad:
importance: High → Low
