I can't speak to the product issue, but is it practical to work around this behavior by ending your class attributes with a dummy character? For example:

  <topic class="- topic/topic task/task -"/>
    /self::*[contains(@class, ' topic/topic ')]

  => true

DITA attaches meaning to the leading '-' and '+' characters. Will the trailing '-' cause problems? If so, could another character be used?

I've been exploring that question with the DITA Technical Committee and the answer appears to be that in fact there are tools that would be disrupted by having anything after the initial "-" or "+" that is not a module/type name pair.

Adding a trailing character would be an easy fix but it would still require scrubbing of the data for use by tools outside of MarkLogic.
