How to reproduce:

• goto the Sandbox web
• create a subweb named MySandbox
• (try to) create a topic in the Sandbox web with the name MySpace
• you can't, you will be offered to edit Sandbox/MySandbox/WebHome instead

Here's the patch:

     # Check to see if we just dissected a web path missing its WebHome
-    if($topic ne "") {
-      if(!$this->{store}->topicExists($web,$topic)) {
-       if($this->{store}->webExists("$web/$topic")) {
-         $web .= '/'.$topic;
-         $topic = "";

-    }

This extra piece of logic might only be value in view mode, but not in edit, if at all. I'd opt to remove it, it is not worth it. Any objections?
