Oh. I’m a bit behind on getting PMs submitted.

I modified the importer so that it creates permalinks like `/showthread/12345`. You can then use permalink\_normalizations to re-write `/forum/sub-forum/12345-the-thread-title` into `/showthread/12345`, which then does the Right Thing.

Looks like I need to clean up the code a bit before I can submit it.
