Comment:

 1. I see your points about filters; I've removed them from the patch.
 2. I don't personally like the idea of denying something to everyone
 because a few people will abuse or misunderstand it, but I understand your
 reasoning.
 3. That's also a good point, it'd have to be tested and possibly handled
 if this were to go anywhere.
 4. Same as !#2, anything can be misused, but I don't feel like that's a
 good reason not do it.  I don't think the_slug() is essential, though, so
 I removed that too.

 So, I don't really agree with all your reasons, but I do appreciate both
 of you taking the time to articulate why you're against it. I'll move on
 to other tickets and just use get_post( $id )->post_name in the future.
 That way still provides some abstraction in the (albeit unlikely) event
 that $post changes in the future.
