 I'm having trouble figuring out whether your sarcasm is meant to be
 humour, or whether you're just being unhelpful? We can't have a discussion
 about the issue if you don't explain your views, I wasn't trying to step
 on anyone's toes :)[[BR]]

 I read back over your earlier comments to try and figure out your
 standpoint, and I actually agree with you that restricting a new slug
 based on something that's in the trash (or recycle bin) is totally counter
 intuitive and a less-than-ideal user experience.[[BR]]
 Now I'm no developer, so maybe from a technical point of view this isn't
 feasible - but I would say that once something is in the trash then the
 slug frees up, but if when restoring a trashed post a duplicate is
 detected, then the original post takes priority and the newer post gets
 changed to  the "-2" with an appropriate warning dialog.[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 There is no definite right or wrong here, and it may well get changed
 based on real user feedback later on.[[BR]]

 My apologies if I was unclear or offended you in any way miqrogroove
