This change enables the SEF plugin to run even when the SEF URLs are not enabled. The background is, that with the new routing system the component routers are always invoked and called with each URL in order to do the necessary changes, especially setting the right Itemid. Without this change, the URLs everywhere are processed, except for those in content, when the SEF URLs are disabled. That means that with the new system, URLs in content would not get the right Itemid.
I copied one article URL when SEF enabled and added in content of another article. Then I disabled the SEF and checked the URL, it doesn't work and redirecting me to the home page. Then I applied patch and again visited the same URL from article, this time also redirected me to home page.
The URL looks same in both the cases. I don't find any URL or parameters changes or anything.
One difference though, before applying patch home page image was not loading and after patch image loads.
Can you please provide more details on how to test? Do I need menu item to test this?
I have not tested this item.
