Unexpected install/clone behavior (relpath misinterpretation)

[mih]

I ran

In [1]: import datalad.api as dl                                                             
In [7]: dl.install('~/forrest/collection/phase2', 'dest2')                                   
[INFO   ] Cloning dest2 into '/tmp/~/forrest/collection/phase2' 
Out[7]: <Dataset path=/tmp/~/forrest/collection/phase2>

I my case both locations have a dataset, so I expected failure and was surprised by the success. It is mistaking the ~ path for a relative path specification. clone has the same issue.

I guess we need expanduser() on each path
