 Reporting the first time to core, so I hope that is the correct place.

 The UX and workflow is different on post and pages when it comes to
 Gutenberg. It makes sense to be easily able to set the slug of a post
 **before** publishing. This is especially important when clients are
 adding post content. It must be made as obvious and easy as possible to
 them.

 **Posts with Gutenberg**
 Add a post with Gutenberg, you'll see you must save as draft first to be
 able to edit the slug

 **Posts with Classic Editor**
 Adding a post with Classic Editor enabled, will allow to set the permalink
 slug right away.

 **Page with Gutenberg**
 Not tested by myself, but got the information from the community. When
 editing pages with Gutenberg, the workflow is differently. It's possible
 to edit the slug right away. So it seem only with native posts this
 behaviour is incorrect.
