Jun 30, 2010 at 14:33 comment added Martin Brandenburg @dke: Thanks. Also, the proof is very short! I've edited my question. @Reid: Ok. Let's assume that $Aut(X)$ acts transitively on $X$. Are more conditions needed?
Jun 30, 2010 at 14:21 comment added Reid Barton The answer to the first question is no: at a minimum, the automorphism group of the space must act transitively, ruling out a space like {1, 1/2, 1/3, ..., 0}.
