To my knowledge they do not, and this seems to be prohibited since the only
approach is to attach one security role to each portlet. So, a portlet by
definition would not support multiple versions of itself with different
security roles attached. You could maybe do this by defining new
permissions and then attaching them to your portlet. Then the various roles
you would have could be attached to users as they progress in payment, and
these new roles could have the permissions to do new things. However, I
have no idea how to write new permissions.
