Portlets setting Public Parameters

[Michael Freedman <michael.freedman@oracle.com>]

For those in the camp that want to add this feature -- do you intend we 
add language to the spec much like we have for events that indicate 
Public Parameters is an optional consumer feature and hence the portlet 
can't count on receiving this value in the future?  Or are you also 
interested in making this a required consumer feature to ensure intended 
behavior?
