Hi Yaron, indeed there is a call to {{PAGENAME}} in the form, which is the
reason that the 'Semantic Forms permissions test' page has been created. 

In my wiki's I never let users choose the page name, but always use information
that is entered on the form to assemble the page name. Default approach is that
a field 'Name' is used for the name of the page with <unique number> in case a
page with that name already exists. The name is always (also) stored in a
property. 

In cases with a red link linking to a form, the name of the page is already
determined and to make it easy to the user I want to pre-fill the 'name' field
on the form with that value. That is why I had {{PAGENAME}} in the form. Then I
found out that when there is no page name yet the name field was filled with
'Semantic Forms permissions test'. Accidentally the page was saved and deleted
again. Then the problem described above occurred.

The problem can be solved to remove the 'Semantic Forms permissions test' page
manually from the database and prevent creation, but I think it is a bug that
the existence of that page disturbs proper functioning of the
'one-step-process'. 

I have reproduced the problem on the scratchpad. If you click on the button on
[http://scratchpad.referata.com/wiki/User:AdSvS] you'll see what I mean. You'll
see the message when 'Semantic Forms permissions test' exists. When you delete
that page, you'll get the message that the page had been deleted.
