 Typepad in particular does some really funky things with permalinks. They
 often have no relation to anything in the title, and none of their "slug"
 information is contained in their standard export, so there is literally
 no way to redirect those links.

 It is possible to create a custom Typepad template that includes the
 needed information, and modify the WP importer to parse the extra info
 into slugs. Right now this is a hack, we should make this more intuitive.
