I noticed that in wordpress if you change the unique slug of a post
and then visit the old slug you get re-directed to the new one. I
wonder if you could do something like that in pyblosxom? Use
categories+filename as permalinks but if you move a post leave a file
behind with an HTML redirect in it.

It could get messy. If you moved a whole category you might have to
leave a whole lot of HTML redirects, and if you moved the same post
more than once you would get a chain of redirects.

If you just move the odd post one time I guess it would work.
