Public bug reported:

I use more than one browser profile, only one of which is logged in to
Launchpad.  When using ubuntu-bug to report a bug, it will open the page
in whichever one happened to be focused last.  If this browser profile
isn't logged in to Launchpad, it will redirect me to a login page.  It
is impossible, as far as I can tell, to reconstruct the original URL in
order to copy/paste it in to a browser profile which _is_ logged in to
Launchpad.

It would be good if ubuntu-bug could either display the URL it is
opening before it opens it in the UI.

(An acceptable workaround for me (as I generally launch ubuntu-bug from
a terminal) would be to write the URL to stdout.)
