The first one (top) opened an empty edit page

  Main / Test
  Editing Main.Test

with Author set to the last value I used when testing Fox [1]. It 
behaved as expected.

The second one (bottom) created a new page, as expected. As you can see 
from its history, it applies the correct author also.

[1] PmWiki itself "knows" that author has been set - i.e. {{$Author}}. 
Thus the author input box of FoxRecipe is always automatically set.
