On the classic forge trove select, you can pick Topic and UI selections at any level, not just leaf nodes. Allura requires you to select a leaf node. For example you can't pick "Topic :: Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Browsers" you must pick "Topic :: Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Browsers :: Plugins and add-ons"

It appears that on classic forge, this is only true for certain categories. License and audience, for example, require you to pick a leaf node.

I'd be fine with changing the UI to make this happen. Personally I think it's easier to browse through a single drop-down like classic does.

    forge:tv/3345

    First run:

    (env-allura)root@h6v6024:/var/local/allura/Allura(tv/3345)$ paster script production.ini ../scripts/migrations/019-set-parent-only-troves.py

    Then browse to the trove categories page and make sure adding and deleting still works, and that the Topic and UI lists now contain non-leaf troves that can be selected and added.

    Looks good, tested fine, merged to dev.
