In the original code from Evan this seems to have been done on purpose:

            apport.fileutils.mark_report_upload(report_file)
            # We check for duplicates and unreportable crashes here, rather
            # than before we show the dialog, as we want to submit these to the
            # crash database, but not Launchpad.
            if self.crashdb.accepts(self.report):

But as Evan, Brian, and Steve all agree that this should not be done any more, I'll change the behaviour (FWIW, I fully agree to this -- there is a plethora of reasons for unreportable crashes, like full disks, RAM errors, modified packages, etc. -- none of which we want on Launchpad, and presuambly none of them belong into the error tracker either).
