It's very rare we have a product in only one category.
Before 5.2.5 it use to dynamically assign a URL based on whatever category it was accessed from. Not sure if this is best practice, but it was far more user-friendly.

First of all, you can return prior-5.2.5 functionality if you go to etc/config.php file and define the use_canonical_urls_only option as Off, i.e.
Code:
use_canonical_urls_only = Off
Could you please let me know why is the approach of adding category_id parameter is bad for you? What is particularly bad in it?
Thank you.
