Steve Alexander implemented facets so that I could specify which tab
(Overview, Bugs, Blueprints, etc) should be active for a Launchpad page.

<https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+translations> redirects to
<https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+translations>.
But <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+addquestion> does not redirect
to <https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+addquestion>.
