Toolbox creates new project even if a project with the same name already exists

When using the endpoint

http://exist3.ulb.tu-darmstadt.de:8080/exist/restxq/edoc/addins/wdm-toolbox/ident/project?name=Air&type=j

to create a project, the toolbox creates a new project, even if a project already exists for the journal. For example, there are multiple projects "Air" in the toolbox at the moment (see http://exist3.ulb.tu-darmstadt.de:8080/exist/apps/edoc/addins/wdm-toolbox/main.html?q=list&ed=jz&p=)

The better behaviour would be that the toolbox only gives back the ID of the existing project, without creating a new one. @dariok gave the hint that it could be a good starting point to check whether the toolbox can see from the data that is sent in the request, that the project already exists.

If you had an idea what could cause this problem, this would help us a lot. Thank you in advance!
