Thanks for the pointers... I think this is not an apport bug after all,
but one in xdg?

I have Google Chrome set as the default browser.  When I launch via xdg-
open:

xdg-open http://bugs.launchpad.net

It returns the line "Created new window in existing browser session."

ANd it opens a new chrome window with an empty tab (no URL).

HOWEVER, when I switch the default back to FireFox, xdg-open DOES open a
FF window and loads launchpad.net successfully.

Modifying ui.py as you suggested prints this:
XXXX opening URL: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+filebug/e639d1fe-7bf7-11e5-a6ad-002481e7f48a?

and again, this fails to open in google chrome (even using xdg-open
which is what apport does, I just learned) but succeeds in opening in
Firefox.

Maybe this is, instead, a bug in xdg-utils?  in Trusty, apport had no
problems opening bugs in new Google Chrome windows.

Title:
  ubuntu-bug in wily fails to open a bug page when reporting bugs

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Fresh install of Wily.  Attempting to file a bug against Unity using
  ubuntu-bug.

  ubuntu-bug prompts me with the expected prompts for a Unity/Gfx bug
  and then says it will open a new window to complete the bug process.

  Normally, this would open a window to a launchpad bug in progress so I
  can update the bug with final details before completing the bug filing
  process.

  Instead, it opens a new browser window with NOTHING in the address
  bar.  Since Ubuntu-Bug does NOT give me the URL in the console where
  it was launched, I have NO way of completing any bugs using ubuntu-
  bug.

  I attempted to file a bug twice with ubuntu-bug and failed both times
  as it does NOT actually open a window that opens the bug's page on
  launchpad:
