Comment(by dd32):

 This could be simplified with the addition of a transition hook, For
 example:

 {{{
 do_action('updated_post', $id, $new_post_array, $old_post_array);
 }}}

 It would then be possible for the old slug memory function
 ({{{wp_check_for_changed_slugs()}}}) to not rely upon a hidden POST
 field.. the data is already stored on the server, its just a matter of
 passing the right data.

 there is the 'pre_update_post' action, which only passes the post_id, and
 then the edit_post hook (which the above function is hooked to) but by
 that stage, its too late to retrieve the original post object, not only
 that, but its also used in a few locations for various meaning.
