Comment (by helen):

 Those mentioned above have probably already talked this out a bit, but
 just wanted to record here that in talking to @boonebgorges I noted that I
 don't actually think it's important to show a message about it, and that
 the "view post" link is enough. Chances of a situation in which somebody
 is untrashing AND there's a slug conflict AND it's critical to have the
 right URL exactly in that moment are lower than the amount of effort that
 would go into messaging and UX for further manipulating the slug (already
 not exactly the greatest UX).

 Basically, I think it's reasonable to teach users that when something goes
 into the trash it "loses"/"forgets" its original slug.
