Bug Description
Binary package hint: apport
In the case where the user wants to report a bug to more than one package, he/she is expected to use ubuntu-bug to open a bug to one of the packages, then add the others when the report is ready (for example, as I just did in Bug #667354).
Recently this has become a little harder in LP, as now it's not intuitive how to add a task for a package - the default is to add the report to the project instead.
Regardless of how LP expects things to be done, it would be convenient if apport already collected all relevant information for the packages when the user issued the command:
$ ubuntu-bug package1 package2
