Title:
  Add a configuration option to keep terminals opened by apport opened

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  `gnome-terminals` which are opened by `apport` to monitor the
  installation of necessary deb packages for local investigation,
  production of `gdb` backtraces, etc. are closed immediately after
  success, but after failure as well (e.g. if `apt-get` can't get its
  global lock, or another issue occurs). For debugging `apport` it'd be
  very useful to have a configuration option which allows the terminals
  opened by `apport` to stay opened after a failure.

  Some details and workarounds have been discussed at (this
  askubuntu.com question)[http://askubuntu.com/questions/600875/how-to-
  keep-terminal-for-installation-of-debugging-symbols-of-apports-local-
  inv].
