Comment (by micasuh):

 Would you consider {{{/%post_id%/}}} to be numeric slugs?

 I tested changing permalinks with the setting above and it was exactly
 what I expected for the slugs, which was using the Post ID as the slug,
 going up in numeric order. It even worked perfectly, as I was expecting
 with posts without a title.

 Permalinks perform a check for duplicate slugs and will append {{{-2}}} if
 that exists, I understand that. But for WordPress installs that use the
 {{{/&postname&/}}} setting, it seems reasonable that posts with no title
 could use the same structure that {{{/%post_id%/}}} provides, which
 appears to be the Post ID in numeric order.
