             Summary: Wildcard publisher auto-creates wildcard topic and breaks 
authorization

Hi,

after publishing a message to wildcard topic, a wildcard topic is auto-created 
and interacts poorly with authorization rules.

Suppose that authorization map contains the following entries:
<authorizationEntry read="admin" write="admin" admin="admin" topic=">" />
<authorizationEntry read="user" topic="A.B" />

Admin creates "A.B" topic and publishes a message to "A.>" causing 
auto-creation of "A.>" topic.

User attempts to consume "A.B" topic, but receives "User user is not authorized 
to read from: topic://A.>" error.

I asked on user mailing list if wildcard publishing is supposed to work at all, 
as I could not find any documentation about that. Unfortunately I did not 
receive any response, so I have to assume that it does.
