A unit test VCStoreTests::verify_NoHistory_TOPICINFO_getRevisionInfo_VCStoreTests_* verifies that when a topic has no history, the author field in META:TOPICINFO has to be treated as incorrect.

Strictly speaking this is correct. However it means that all System topics are attributed to the UnknownUser. The core code is behaving correctly in this respect, and the unit test is therefore wrong.
