Title:
  apport-gtk opens too many windows to be useful

Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  Invalid
Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  For regular users, windows are a burden, and more than one appearing
  that is not the result of something they asked for is a terrible
  experience. It's scary, intimidating, and turns their machine into a
  useless heap and makes them feel helpless until they can clean away
  the mess. It damages their trust in the machine.

  A single window is manageable. They can take that effort. That can be
  digested.

  Apport UI should open a single window, regardless of how many reports
  it wishes to send.  If I have a wonky hardware device or a long-
  running machine, getting all the scheduled reports at once is almost
  useless.

  This should be a good 100 Papercuts bug to fix.
