Bug Description

Launchpad sometimes presents you with a +login page that says "You're already logged in". For example, you go to a page that requires logging in, and after the login you realize it wasn't the page you wanted, so you click Back. Another way of encountering the problem is opening windows for multiple pages that require login (e.g. a list of security bugs in an e-mail message), then logging in for the first, then trying to log in for a second.

The "You're already logged in" message should never appear; Launchpad should just get on with taking you where you want to go. One way of avoiding the first case above would be for the login page URL to be identical to the URL of the page you are trying to view -- i.e. abolish the "/+login" from the end.

I'd love to see this bug fixed - right now it's causing me to hate
edge with a passion because people post URLs to edge which I'm not
(and don't want to be) logged into. I then hit Ctlr-l and edit the
edge out of the URL. Only to hit the annoying 'You're already logged
in' page.
