 When uploading plugins to WordPress.org, it's no uncommon that people want
 to customise the slug.

 Currently the slug is derived from the plugin name, and changing it
 requires manual action by the reviewers BEFORE the plugin is approved.

 It's not uncommon for uploaders to ignore the post-upload email, and to
 request the slug be changed once they get the approved email.

 It would be beneficial if after uploading a new plugin, the uploader is
 presented with information about the plugin, including the slug, and given
 a chance to update the slug then-and-there (and perhaps to delete/abort
 the upload if they've uploaded the incorrect thing..)
