Same here. I appreciate seeing the project name when I look at the list
of bugs I'm subscribed to, but it's noise when I look at the recent bugs
filed against bzr, for example.

You say "... in the first results line". Does that mean bug result
listings will be two lines per bug, rather than one (as they are in
Launchpad the moment) ?
