Comment (by helen):

 I'm going to look at this and #18306 today, was reminded of it on #17609.

 Replying to [comment:22 tyxla]:
 > I'm a little doubtful for removing the slug meta box. The Permalink
 section is not shown for non-public post types. So removing that meta box
 would prevent the user to manage the slug in non-public post types. And
 I've dealt with such cases in my experience - using non-public post types
 that are using the slug (and need a field to manage it).

 I had envisioned putting the slug field in the same spot in that instance,
 which could possibly always show as an input instead of having to click
 edit. Would have to see how visually noisy that is.
