Hey, Jim, the permalink_fu plugin can manage this very nicely for the model.
For example see the URL below for the two deals we had with exactly same title: "$25 Restaurant GC for $2" http://www.sharemydeal.com/forums/hot-deals/topics/restaurant-com-25-gift-certificates-are-only-2 http://www.sharemydeal.com/forums/hot-deals/topics/restaurant-com-25-gift-certificates-are-only-2-2 what's more impressive is you can even specify the scope of the permalink uniqueness even though we are not using this feature, for example in a BBS application such as aBeast, you can say the topic permalink needs to be unique in my 'hot-deal' board, not necessarily across the entire forums.
