Comment (by jhodgdon):
As another point in favor of slugs on the "create new" sections, I believe
that single-language users of WP who write in Chinese, Japanese, and other
non-url-friendly languages also create slugs for their categories and
tags, since otherwise the URLs are a string of %02%83 etc and totally
unreadable. So I do think that slugs are useful to a fairly wide audience.
It's not a huge deal, but having slugs on the Create New sections would
allow these users to get the full benefit of those sections of the post
edit screen.
I would also only suggest adding a slug field to a new, separate "create a
new tag" expandable area, and the existing "Add New Category" area, not to
the existing "Add a tag" field. Agreed: it would be way too tricky to deal
with multiple tags and multiple slugs.
Anyway, if you don't want slugs in those sections, then we can just tell
all multilingual and non-European-language bloggers to use the Manage
Tag/Category screens whenever they create new tags or categories.
