Hi all,

I've mostly completed (but not checked in) work on
http://www.ja-sig.org/issues/browse/UP-2027.  This ticket describes work
necessary to provide a way to configure various different behaviors for
portlet preferences in guest mode.

Supported use cases:

1. No preferences.

2. No preferences aren't loaded from the database store, but guest users can
play with portlets and set preferences on a per-session basis.

3. Preferences are loaded from the database store.  Guest users can't make
changes.

4. Preferences are loaded from the database store.  Guest users can make
changes, which will only be stored in their session.  No other users will
see these changes, and they will only last for that user for the length of
the session.

5. Preferences are loaded from the database store, and guest users can make
changes.  Preferences changes will be stored to the database and shared by
all users.

I'm hoping these options will cover the most commonly desired behaviors.
Additional behaviors could be created by subclassing this portlet
preferences service implementation and overriding methods as desired.

Which of the above behaviors should we set as the defaults?

- Jen
