[consulting] "Forced" path redirect?

[Greg Knaddison]

I don't think the core alias system solves this, whether alone or in
combination with global redirect.

I suggest you file an issue with path_redirect to get an option on the
administration form that lets you override this restriction.  In the
short term you can also use Path redirects API or do direct inserts
into the database.

Regards,
Greg
