Comment (by bobbingwide):

 Note: I'm currently having problems when I introduced "pending" posts with
 the same slug into the scenario.
 The existence of the pending post seems to prevent a visitor from viewing
 the previously published post.
 It gives a 404 when you click on the permalink for the existing published
 post.

 Note: I've not be working in a vanilla environment; it seems WP-members
 was affecting the results in one.
 In another the pending post's slug is already being suffixed. Watch this
 space.
