Right now, I've assumed that I would be able to use the following tuple to uniquely retrieve any graphic component instance: <component registry name>:<component name>:<component instance ID> with the assumption that the instance ID would be portal-wide unique. For portlets, that would be for example: <Portlet:RSSPortlet:194536> I'd really love not have to expose the portlet ID, since it's an Impelmentation-specific value, and keep the portlet name as the Functional key in the page description. Also note, that I don't plan to have any instance name assigned, since I can't see any use for it actually and an instance ID seems more generally useful. > We may need to extend the PorletEntity's id to include an > information that makes it unique portal-wide.
