@Bilal (comment #4): the reason I didn't respond to your questions for such a long time, was because I was waiting for the crash to happen again so I could answer them. However, this bug hasn't appeared anymore since Saturday (while before it would happen at least once a day).

Maybe the bug was fixed? I installed updates on Friday, but there was no update for unity (maybe the update of libcairo2 and libcairo-gobject2 from 1.10.2-6.1ubuntu2 to 1.10.2-6.1ubuntu3 is related? Or ubuntuone-client 3.0.0-0ubuntu1 to 3.0.0-0ubuntu1.1?)

Also, I've been following bug #994921 (and just read #993450 and [1]), and it appears apport doesn't automatically file bug reports on Launchpad anymore. When I was still using the beta release of Precise, I got used to a browser window popping up right after I reported a crash, but it seems this doesn't happen anymore. As a user, I got no feedback on whether my crash report was sent in successfully or not. I assumed not, but maybe it did, and maybe the bug was already fixed by the time I filed this report manually? (It's still not entirely clear to me how the crash report system works, and what the relation is between apport, whoopsie, errors.ubuntu.com and Launchpad...)
