Santiago, can you take care of this since you did all the work on the

I've not yet looked at the new ACL model since it's not in the main branch but
I gave some thoughts on the template issue and there are several ways of
implementing this in jetspeed depending on our goals:

- Do we want to keep existing Portlets unchanged by this addition ?
- Do we want to be able to mix templated and non templated Portlets in
the same layout ?
- Which templating system are we planning to support ?

I'd answer yes, yes and Webmacro/Velocity/XSLT.
I think I'll try a base implementation of such a system by
subclassing the Portlet interface into a TemplatePortlet interface and provide
alternative JetspeedLayout.
