The Portlet spec doesnt address the concept of pages, just one page
implied.

So if each user has their own home page, their preferences are per user,
as other users shouldnt see that page.

The model only supports this use case, not yours.

This issue has been around for a while

http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JS2-449

In the current model, Prefs are associated with the window of a page,
not a user. This approach allows us to share prefs on common role pages
for example, but have specific user prefs for your home page, although
all prefs are really shared on all pages as the prefs lookup key does
not include user name.

This is going to have to change to support your use case, as stated in
the JIRA issue, and its going to require changes to the data model

I don't think its a big change, but I have to consider backward
compatibility and the need for use cases where prefs are shared on
common pages (which isnt really a use case from the spec)
