[Bug 433738] [NEW] Invalid redirect after editing URL slug in frontend (from permalink) / Automatic redirects when chaning URL slug

 

Public bug reported:

If you click "Edit..." on a permalink / single item view in the frontent [1], there is a redirect_to param which points to the current URL.
If you change this URL, e.g. by editing the URL slug, the redirect (after pressing "Save") will go to a Not-Found page.

A nifty solution would be to automatically create a redirect post, at
least for some time (can be cleaned by maintenance task).

This is really useful in general, since you often notice a typo in the
title, but editing the URL slug is more difficult (since you have to
manually setup some redirect).
