[wp-testers] permalink hooks...

Say we have a page that is generated automatically by our plugin and the 
URL is site.com/product_page/

Now lets imagine the user turns permalinks off and 
site.com/product_page/ suddenly becomes site.com/?p=16

Currently there is no hook for us to detect permalink changes so we can 
not change the URL in the plugin settings to match things accordingly.

At present if a user changes their permalinks they have to refresh the 
page URLs manually by clicking a link in the WP e-Commerce settings or 
their site will break (they will get a 404 error).

It would make much more sense if this whole process was automated by a 
hook that detected permalink changes.

Ciao,

Dan
