 the vonsensus based decision was that the permalink duplication has to be
 resolved by the user emptying the post from the trash.

 always had.

 Sorry, but that's just wrong :) Trashed items should always have less
 significance than those that are published (or going to be published).

 WordPress should warn the user if they decide to recover something from
 the trash that has a conflicting slug, not if they want to publish
 something new.
