Bug Description
I wanted to reporting a bug on gnome-app-install in ubuntu. While checking to see if the bug had already been filed I entered '915' into the search dialog (because the bug report is about gnome-app-install not finding the '915resolution' package). This then jumped me straight to bug #915 which is a bug in some completely unrelated package. Maybe this is intentional, but it doesn't strike me as obvious or desirable.

I think this is desirable.
This "go to this bug quick" behaviour is useful, and it should not be restricted by Launchpad's idea of how bugs are related to one another.
Leaving the bug unconfirmed.
