Sure, but as I said, there is a "Choose another project" link there.

I didn't actually try it, no, I only looked at the pages. But to make
you happy, I've now added edgy-backports on staging. This was my work

I didn't actually try it, no, I only looked at the pages. But to make
you happy, I've now added edgy-backports on staging. This was my work
flow:
1) go to /bugs.staging. launchpad. net/ubuntu/ +source/ mercurial/ +bug/223789
https:/
2) click on "Also affects project"
3) click on "Choose another project"
4) replace "hg" with "edgy-backports"
5) press "Continue"
6) press "Add to Bug Report"
(this may seem a bit awkward workflow, but the only extra step here is 2) )
