For your second question:
Yes portal preference page is very basic still and does not allow you to
customize any look and feel. Vanilla extension is a example of Maven War
overlay where if you will have file with same name from rave in vanilla
extension project that will be included in new WAR file. You can copy
default.css in vanilla extension and customize it accordingly. Custom css is
just included in Login page so changing that may not help. You can try
something like this also in rave code itself
http://incubator.apache.org/rave/documentation/custom-gui.html.
Suggestions or a patch to improve on current process is welcome.
Thanks
