Re: [wsia][wsrp-interfaces] Refactoring the data objects
Yossi,

The sessionID somehow implies that the producer is keeping all state
key-ed off with the sessionID.

The markupParams allows (actually it just makes it easy) to keep state
(for the portlet entity) outside of the producer. Of course you could
serialize all the markupParams in a blob an use that as sessionID.

I also see this separation as superficial, but I think it will make 
things easier and manageable for vendors that want to have stateless 
producers.

Regards.

Alejandro
