[wp-testers] Slug

Changing the slug like that would work fine for drafts, but to change
the slug on an already published post could result in broken links.
That may be why it is not updated with title change.

But when dealing with draft posts, perhaps the two (title and slug)
should remain synced.

Regarding the first issue, though, it would seem intuitive that the
Publish button always published, regardless of what auto-save has
done.
