Title: Message

My understanding is that actions are a way to support multi-page 
portlets. E.g., a search portlet has two buttons "prev" and "next", each one is 
a separate action. The portlet receives this action and generates a new page 
accordingly. It can generate it as part of the action invocation or in a later 
phase (getFragment).

I would like to open another discussion parallel to our 
  session debate. 
From the perspective of the protocol 
  defined in the latest draft I can't 
figure out the 
  semantic difference between performAction and 
getFragment.  Each seem to be capable of returning the same 
  stuff.  Why 
do we need both?  I.e. how are 
  they semantically different?
