it's even worse: you can enter anything you want like
this_is_not_the_title_i_expected.37.0.html
and it will display page 37.

This is very bad, let's say an editor renames a page - it will never be 
in google index, as the old url is still available.

I made an extension which verifies page title so URL "has" to be unique.
