>
> It should be possible to provide preferences for the initial instantiation of 
> portlets in PSML. These preferences customize the portlet by overriding (or 
> adding to) the default preferences defined in the portlet.xml.
> Example: If I want to have an introductory page displaying e.g. the three 
> most important RSS feeds, then the selection of the RSS stream is related to 
> layout, because I want a layout displaying e.g. "Company news", "Department 
> news" and "Team issues". Binding an RSS portlet to a particular feed makes it 
> a specific item that I want to put at a specific place. I don't want to 
> layout three generic RSS feeds, I want to layout company, department and team 
> news.
> As I want to layout portlet instances, it is not sufficient to be able to 
> layout portlet types. Configuring the instances within PSML would be 
> convenient and intuitive. It would also be acceptable if I could configure 
> the instances in some other configuration file. But only laying out three 
> generic RSS portlets and handing the task to bind the feeds to the end user 
> is not feasable.
