17653	Canonical Redirect when space(s) are used instead of hyphens when requesting a page	jamescollins	dd32	"Create a page with a slug that contains a hyphen (eg. /page-name/).

If you then visit /page name/ (ie. use a space instead of a hyphen), WordPress currently manages to locate and display the page-name page. This could cause duplicate content issues.

The same issue occurs if multiple spaces are used instead of a hyphen.

As an example, this is the original page: http://jamesc.id.au/test-page/

This page is accessible via:
* http://jamesc.id.au/test%20page/
* http://jamesc.id.au/test%20%20page/
* http://jamesc.id.au/test%20%20%20page/
* http://jamesc.id.au/test%20%20%20%20page/

and so on.

WordPress should either output a 404 error, or redirect to /page-name/.
