Detail

Preferences stored in WebTopicViewTemplate (as META::PREFERENCE or via 'Set') are not used when this topic is displayed for an inexistent topic.

The reason seems to be that TWIki::UI::readTemplateTopic() does not update the preferences cache. The following fix in lib/TWiki/UI.pm works for me:

sub readTemplateTopic {
...     my ($meta, $text) = $session->{store}->readTopic( $session->{user}, $web, $theTopicName, undef );
    $session->{prefs}->pushPreferences($web, $theTopicName, 'TOPIC');
    return ($meta, $text);
}

This function is only used in three places in the whole TWiki source code so the impact of this change should be well understandable.
