Comment(by vividvisions):

 Yes, I know. Thanks for the link, this looks quite interesting.

 But the problem remains wp_unique_post_slug since it will always reject
 numeric slugs for pages. Step one would be to change this function to
 accept any page slug as long as there is no possible conflict. Maybe my
 idea above works, I'll look into that.

 Step two would be to enhance the URL resolving, so that WP isn't confused
 anymore when it encounters numeric slugs for pages. A neat URL routing
 mechanism like described in #12935 would help a lot.
