Item13768: Fix odd behavior in afterSaveHandler with unusual base topic.

The DBCachePlugin afterSaveHandler defaults to $baseWeb and $baseTopic (actually $web and $topic from initPlugin()). When called with an unusual web, i.e. via a REST handler, e.g. bin/rest/ExamplePlugin/handlername?arg=val $web might be set to "ExamplePlugin" in initPlugin(), causing suprisingly hard to trace errors.

Will look into this. However remember to ALWAYS set the topic parameter to any REST call. This is important. ALL of the Foswiki core will behave unusual when no proper web.topic can be derived from the pathinfo ... as is the case for REST calls.

After careful review by JanKrueger, we came up with a better solution proposal: https://github.com/mgla/DBCachePlugin/commit/890362e550d7b7c91b6ba12e260ef30201d13b70

Did you read my previous comment from 30 Sep 2015, as adding a topic parameter to your REST call fixes the problem not only for DBCachePlugin assuming $session->{webName} and $session->{topicName} are correct web and topic entries.

Don't seem to get a reply here. Please reopen in case there is still an issue.
