Description

When backend user change slug of a page then there are sys_redirects that are created automatically. Following scenario will lead to whole part of page tree be inaccessible for visitors:

1. Page is called "Subpage" (slug: /subpage)
2. Page is beeing renamed to "Subpage something" and slug get's updated to "/subpage-something" at the same time redirect 307 is created (/subpage -> /subpage-something)
3. Page is beeing renamed to "Subpage" and slug get's updated to "/subpage" at the same time redirect 307 is created (/subpage-something -> /subpage)

After step 3 is done - infinite redirect has been created so subpage and all it's child pages are inaccessible at all due to infinite redirect.

We already had such a case with our redactors several times. Did anyone experienced similar problems and how you deal with that? Of course automatic redirects creation might be switched off by configuration but after all it's nice functionality - but could be quite dangerous at current state.
