We're not going to do that precisely because the launchpad changelog is
HTML.

Title:
  apt-get changelog propose a link on launchpad changelog when not
  available, should get this changelog instead

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Opinion

Bug description:
  When you type apt-get changelog compiz, by instance, if the Compiz changelog is available, it's OK.
  Else, you got a link to the changelog on Launchpad.
  APT should retrieve the changelog on launchpad instead of showing the link.

  I did a patchwhich fix this bug, but it remain one issue : HTML entities appears in the changelog (<a> for links and <pre> in the beginning of the file (and </pre> at the bottom)).
  Sorry for the usage of a goto but it was the easiest solution for doing this.
