Public bug reported:
When paying for an app with Paypal, the Paypal login screen is presented
in an Ubuntu wrapper. There is no indication on this page that I'm
actually looking at paypal.com rather than being phished or that some
bad DNS has pointed me to a wrong site. The padlock in the top corner
doesn't indicate anything I'm inclined to believe -- is it showing that
the connection is https? Has it verified that I'm really talking to
Paypal? How can I know that? This is encouraging people to type their
Paypal password into phishing sites. The previous step in the purchase
process, where I'm choosing which payment system to use, also displays a
padlock, and that hasn't connected to any payment site at all.
