Comment:

 Yes this is an issue. Now we need to find the proper way to fix it.

 One (naive) idea is to make the "add/" url configurable, perhaps using a
 setting. But still, this wouldn't be ideal as a conflict would still
 potentially exist if whatever value you give to that setting is then used
 as a primary key.

 Really, the url schema for the admin is slightly flawed here. Down the
 track we might want to redesign it to avoid any sort of conflict -- but
 that would likely be heavily backwards incompatible.
