Slug generation
===============

Every poll got an own **slug**, which

* is based on entered title (when listing is allowed)
* is randomly created (when listing is disallowed)

Good to know
------------

* When listing setting of poll gets updated during edit, also the slug gets updated.
* t3oodle uses an event listener for this (``UpdatePollSlugListener``), listening to ``CreateAfterEvent`` and
  ``UpdateBeforeEvent`` of the PollController. See :ref:`events` for further info.
* When a slug wouldn't be unique, the poll uid is appended.
