Ironically, Launchpad actually does have a feature like this; when you
+filebug you get pretty good duplicate matching, and the summary is
actually displayed.
Unfortunately, apport doesn't use that (and I'm not sure the dupefinder
functionality is properly exported via the API) and this does lead to
many duplicates. But perhaps the proper first wish here would be that
apport submit its crash reports to a specialized queue, not as incoming
bugs!
