Bug description:
  apport 1.13.3-0ubuntu2, Ubuntu 10.04

  If trying to file a bug when there is no internet connection, apport gives some silly error message.
  It would be better if the reports were automatically saved to disk with --save for later reporting.
  Reporting could be timed to happen with Update Manager or something?
  The error message could be more human in the mean-time.

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ContributorConsole#bugs>: "“Send _ Pending
  Reports” should be sensitive whenever Apport has at least one bug
  report queued for sending."
