Homepage listing for new product gets nuked if you change the link in publishing section.

Just something I noticed. I did not save the custom link before publishing. I made the mistake of changing it after and the new listing page just shows the broken link with no redirect to the new link. I am not sure if this is something that can be fixed. I am ignorant to all the tech stuff but If I had realized changing the link would nuke my new listing space opportunity i would not have done that so quickly. my mistake.
