 Hello,

 When creating a new post draft, the special characters in the slug are not
 escaped properly.

 Steps to reproduce the bug:

 1) Add new post

 2) Write in the title: "the-test's-w/-$pecial-;chars" (without quotes)

 3) Save draft

 4) Open a new browser session and log back in to view the draft (optional
 step)

 5) The permalink preview shows: http://wptest.local/the-
 test's-w--$pecial-;chars/‎

 6) The forward slash is removed; but, the other special characters are
 not.

 6.b) The expected result should be: http://wptest.local/the-tests-w
 -pecial-chars/‎

 6.c) In fact, the expected result happens after the post is published.

 The bug only seems to happen when the post is still in draft. However,
 prior to WP5, this bug did not exist.
