Just wanted to update anyone who comes across this and needs a (bad)
solution. I managed to get this to work using something quite ugly.
Instead of:
redirect_to(controller='page', action='index', title=title)
I used:
redirect_to('/page/index/'+str(title))
Getting rid of the str() in the second one or adding str() to the
first one did not work.
