Details

(Whiteboard: [specification][type:change]) 

What feature should be changed? Please provide the URL of the feature if possible.
==================================================================================
It appears the get_absolute_url() method of the Document model is returning different results within the model and on individual instances.

With Document's build_json_data method, get_absolute_url() does not account for the zone alias.  Calling the method outside of the model returns the aliased URL.

What problems would this solve?
===============================
Writers use the URL lookup (via the autosuggest_documents view) to get subnav URLs.  We should serve the aliased URL.

Who would use this?
===================
Eryone.

What would users see?
=====================
The aliased URL in subnav, etc.

What would users do? What would happen as a result?
===================================================
N/A

Is there anything else we should know?
======================================
Les Orchard is smarter than me.
Need to edit and commit the aliased page before JSON data returns the correct URL. :/  Probably invalid.
