Comment (by DJPaul):

 I like the idea of building group slug editing into the wp-admin/groups
 dashboard, but less convinced that it should go in the user-side frontend
 of BuddyPress. If the edit box can be added into one of the existing
 groups admin screens somewhere, that's fine. If it involves adding a brand
 new tab to the subnav, I like the idea less.

 Replying to [comment:3 boonebgorges]:
 > But group lookup is done well afterward, during
 `BP_Groups_Component::setup_globals()`. So we just do a check for
 `group_exists()`, and if it fails, try to look for an old group slug in
 groupmeta, then redirect.

 Exactly I believe this is very similar to how old Page slugs are handled
 for WordPress Pages. KISS. :) Discussions about the other stuff can be
 looked into on another ticket in the future.
