 When I redirect (301) a page A to another not canonical B, the B page is
 showed but with canonical pointing to A in the code.

 This is a loop for search engines and bad for SEO.

 I suggest the automatic change of canonical URL to the 301 redirected whit
 redirection plugin or .htaccess , or at least the option of disable
 canonical at all, or page to page, or the change of canonical page to
 page.
