I would agree with the need to separately
visit the backward compatibility question. I would note the general approach
we are taking of developing new things as if they were independent and
deferring any decision about merging those things with existing parts of
the spec until it is determined that a particular feature should be added
to the spec.

With regard to the copyPortlet proposal,
it clearly can be an extension of the clonePortlet operation with a new
(likely nullable) parameter, but it is too early to decide we want to do
that.

For copyPortlet(), the strawman states that clone()
is not being reused
for backwards compatibility reasons.  Another approach, would be to
add
the additional argument to the clone() method and force implementations
to check the producer spec version before making the call.  The
advantage is that we wouldn't have multiple methods which have similar
functionality.  This seems like a larger question of general approach
regarding spec versions and backward compatibility that we probably
should discuss.
