Comment (by johnbillion):

 Replying to [comment:52 bradyvercher]:
 > I have a plugin that allows for managing archive titles, descriptions
 and permalink slugs using a CPT to house that data in the background. The
 background CPT shouldn't be publicly queryable, but it still uses the
 "edit slug box" for managing permalinks. This isn't possible after
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/src/wp-admin/edit-form-
 advanced.php?rev=33672#L535 this line] was added in [33666].

 The post slug can still be edited by enabling the 'Slug' meta box in
 Screen Options. This might even be a preferable UI for your plugin because
 it doesn't suggest that the slug is used in a publicly accessible
 permalink. Let me know what you think.
