 {{{wp_old_slug_redirect}}} currently only handles core rewrite endpoints
 (like {{{feed}}} and {{{embed}}}). If you have a custom rewrite endpoint,
 you end up redirected back to the new permalink.

 You can use the [old_slug_redirect_url
 https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/old_slug_redirect_url/]
 filter to redirect correctly but the filter does not pass the post id,
 which makes things a bit challenging (especially if you need to do any
 processing beyond just appending the endpoint).

 It would be nice if the post id was passed into the
 {{{old_slug_redirect_url}}} filter:

 {{{
 $link = apply_filters( 'old_slug_redirect_url', $link, $id );
 }}}

 It would be even nicer if the redirect handled custom endpoints
 automatically as well.
