Description
When you edit a post, there is a Slug panel at the bottom where you can edit the slug. The field displaying the text of the slug is set inline to 13, which is not nearly wide enough to show more than 15 letters.

We really should remove the metabox instead :) #18523

Props:
- tyxla wanted to increase the width and the top margin (#31261)
- abitofmind found the Slug metabox on the media attachment page (#57285)
I think adding the large-text
class is worth a change for as long as the Slug field is still available. The margin may be good enough, even though it's smaller on the top than the bottom, considering that we would prefer to remove the metabox.

Thanks for trying to get the patch integrated into the current version!
This little fix would help editing in a contemporary layout. Thanks!

Meta / Offtopic: I usually always try to find existing issues, but failed here.
- https://core.trac.wordpress.org/search is really awful.
- Only two checkboxes: Search in: ☑︎ Changesets ☑︎ Tickets
- No "only search in title" filter or component filters. Nothing.
- The linked help page https://core.trac.wordpress.org/wiki/TracSearch
- Does not present any query language either.
- Seems to be really that limited.
- Hard to conduct a proper research prior reporting for the occasional contributor.
- Possibly low hanging fruit (search option config? better help text?) to improve the community experience.

@abitofmind Yes, that's off-topic :) If you would like to propose Trac changes, you could visit Meta Trac. If it helps, I found these tickets using Google site search.
It's such a lame meta box, it's really only for no JS, and it's hidden by default. But patch attached.
