Is that possible?

+
+The site I'm trying to set up right now (not really a wiki - no public editing) is divided into topics. Topics are pages that have `\[[!meta link="/topic"]]`. Topic pages contain an index of their subpages (done with `\[[!inline]]`); the subpages are the real content. I want a map in the sidebar that lists:
+
+ * all of the topics;
+ * all of the first-level subpages of the *current topic only*.
+
+That is, if the current page is "Topic A" or "Topic A/Page 1", then the map should look like
+
+ Topic A
+ Page 1
+ Page 2
+ Page 3
+ Topic B
+ Topic C
+
+but if the current page is "Topic B" or one of its subpages, then the map should look like
+
+ Topic A
+ Topic B
+ Page 1
+ Page 2
+ Page 3
+ Topic C
+
+Is there any way to do that? I don't mind mucking around with `[[!meta]]` on every page if that's what it takes.
