Yes. There are bad implementation details in Launchpad for sure. I was
more viewing it as a good model of the things that Bugzilla really
doesn't do well - tracking bugs across different projects, and managing
multiple releases of a distribution (since it wasn't designed to do
either of those).
The guided process process of filing new bugs in Launchpad is extremely
smooth and user friendly--no comparison to all the fields you have to
manually select and scroll from in bugzilla. Before filing my bug it
also prompted me with a listing of existing bugs to see if my issue
already existed--a very useful way to catch and reduce duplicates.
I've only filed one bug at Launchpad. It was for an upstream project
that lives there and I was given a direct URL to it by the maintainer so
maybe my experience is not representative of most.
