topic[products] seems to break the topics rest api
I am trying to use the developer api to post a new topic associated with a specific product. I am able to post topics fine without a product association, but when in include topic[products]=product_name post parameter, the api seems to fail silently. I get a 200 response back with a content-length of 0 and no topic is posted. If remove the topic[products] post parameter, then the topic posts fine and I get an atom document back on the response.
I would expect an error if I'm using the parameter wrong.

Inappropriate?Whoops, looks like my error catching on the server side is falling down regarding that bug.
I'll both fix that specific bug, and fix the error message breakage on friday, our bug day.
In the meantime, rather than specifying the company in the posted attributes, using topic[company_domain], you can instead use the post to the companies topics collection (api.getsatisfaction.com/companies/foobar/topics) to specify a company, which would sidestep this specific bug and allow you to include products.
I’m thankful for the report

Inappropriate?Excellent! Thank you.
Also noticed that when you delete a topic, it seems to send you to a bad url. Looks like a ton of xhtml is being appended to the end of the url in the browser. Just a heads up :)
