I seem to recall we're using that for REDIRECT pages, why not for this kind of situation?
. . . and to clarify, since I left this out: we *need* redirects to have different URLs, because they actually display slightly different content (the little "redirected from" thing). This reason is not relevant to the proposal at hand.
No, it's possible to add "redirected from" but still change the URL. Wikia did this before the canonical tag came in.
The code is here: https://svn.wikia-code.com/wikia/trunk/extensions/wikia/HardRedirectsWithJSText/HardRedirectsWithJSText.php
