Isn』t it annoying when you craft a post title, and then the URL slug kind of falls short? Like, if your title is Breaking: Yankees win 3-2 in extra innings. I』m excited & literally can』t even and your post slug turns out like breaking-yankees-win-3-2-in-extra-innings-im-excited-literally-cant-even. 「3-2」 is ambiguous because all the words are already separated by dashes. 「im」 is not a word. 「cant」 means something else. The ampersand meaning 「and」 just got dropped. The leading 「breaking-」 will be silly when the date part of the URL is 3 years old. The whole URL is off. Doesn』t this make more sense? yankees-win-3-to-2-in-extra-innings-i-am-excited-and-literally-cannot-even. Sure it』s really long (and a future version of the plugin will help with that!), but it reads much better.
