 When editing a post which has been published already, I can edit the
 timestamp using the "Published on:"-item within the "Publish Status" box,
 but then the URL of my blog entry (using the "Day and name" permalink
 structure) changes. So instead of keeping $DOMAIN/blog/2008-05-10/foobar
 as the blog entries URL it will become $DOMAIN/blog/2008-05-22/foobar
 instead; people linking to the old entry
 ("$DOMAIN/blog/2008-05-10/foobar") will get a 404 error then. :(

 IIRC it was possible to edit the timestamp of a specific blog post without
 changing the "published on" property in earlier wordpress versions, that's
 the behaviour I'd like to get back. :)

 So instead of modifying the URL of my blog entry when updating information
 inside an article I'd like to just modify the timestamp of it so people
 get an update of the post via RSS.

 Thanks.
