This bug should not be classified as invalid, in every Ubuntu 17.04 installation that I do on several computers, thunderbird is not in Gnome-Software, and yet the workaround shown above did not work.

Essentially, using a freshly installed Ubuntu GNOME 17.04, Thunderbird is not available in GNOME Software (the default software app for this flavour). You cannot find it via search or the packages browser. The only way to install it is via apt-get and even then it doesn't show in Software (see attached picture).
