I think the only case where the slug will change on it's own is if you
haven't modified it and you move the page to be child of another page.
While it's not built in, it should be easy to make a template tag that
looks up a page url by id, something like:
@register.filter
def absolute_url_by_id(page_id):
return Page.objects.get(id=page_id).get_absolute_url()
in a template:
{% load whatever_tags_that_is_in %}
<a href="{{ page.id|absolute_url_by_id }}">...</a>
You might want to clean that up a bit to handle a nonexistant id, but I
think that's the gist of it.
