#124 - concept of window ID
•JSR168 introduces a windowID to enable portlets to namespace multiple instances of themselves within a shared session.
•This seems like a particular Producer to entity issue. Key question is whether means are provided for the Producer to supply the functionality. Choices include:
•1. Producer manages creating a unique id and encodes it in the refHandle for subsequent invocations.
•2. Producers not using refHandles could exploit the fact that JSR168 Producers are going to set requiresCookieSupport to ’true’. In addition to the JSessionID cookie that will be shared by all portlets in a portlet application, a portlet specific cookie could certainly be used to store this unique id.
