Bug Description

When linking a product series to a ubuntu source package[1], we should offer the end-user a smarter selection widget instead of a text field. This would be solved nicely by using the google-suggests-style widget, and less nicely by using the horrible selector we use for assignees.

Why is this a soyuz bug? Maybe it should be re-assigned to launchpad-bazaar?
There is no sourcepackage field in the product series +source form, only a bazaar branch field. Is that the same thing?

I see no reason to reassign that to launchpad-bazaar. It probably was filed under soyuz because packaging links were initially intended for GrumpyGroundhog, which is largely a soyuz project.

Since packaging links seems to be used for other things now (language packs?) that should probably be considered a Registry issue and be reassigned to 'launcphad'.

This can be fixed when bug 123898 is implemented.
