Nit-pick about the description for URL alias.

The alternative URL for this content. Use a relative path. For example, enter "/about" for the about page.

It's true, "/about" is a relative path, but so are "about" and "../about".
The latter 2 relative paths are invalid.
"Use a relative path." is not accurate and potentially confusing.

The example is sufficient to explain the expected value.

Great suggestion. It makes it more precise.

Now that I'm re-rolling and re-reading this, is there any reason not to use the same description for both the Path Form base and the Path Widget?

The patch seems to be a better solution for the aliasing.

Version: 8.1.x-dev » 8.2.x-dev

Drupal 8.1.0-beta1 was released on March 2, 2016, which means new developments and disruptive changes should now be targeted against the 8.2.x-dev branch. For more information see the Drupal 8 minor version schedule and the Allowed changes during the Drupal 8 release cycle.

I prefer the description in the patched version because it is easier to understand and more accurate.

I think this patch provide the good readability about the configuration.

Looks good to me but tagging for usability review for a second opinion.
