Title:
  ubuntu-bug bleeds username into Launchpad comments making it
  impossible to redact

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Reporting a bug using ubuntu-bug invariably seems to attach my system
  username to the bug description. If I try to edit that description in
  order to remove the username, it succeeds, but I'm not informed that
  every version of the description is being saved and published publicly
  for anyone, making all edits useless for the sake of privacy.

  I now have only one choice if I want to not disclose my system
  username: don't use ubuntu-bug anymore for any bug reporting.

  Also it means I'd have to mark already reported bugs as Private, which
  more often than not informs me that it will be visible to no one...
