Right now, it's the default behavior indeed (same for Minimize), and these
settings are persisted in PSML (so that if you minimize and log out, the
next time you'll log in you'll find the portlet still minimized).
Now, I understand that people would like in some case to have non persistent
settings and allow anonymous users to use them.
I have no strong opinion either way, until we release we still have the
possibility to change the default behavior.
May be other users would care to comment on this issue ?
