PublicParameters issues

As you may remember I posted a outline proposal for this in early September.
 Its
here.  There was a discussion in the following coordination meeting which
I wasn't abel to attend.  The issues that appear at the bottom of the document
came from the minutes of that concall.  A number of them seem to be centered
around expanding this mechanism to support portlet property/state ala something
discussed in rev 1 and partially added [though downscaled to merely support
persistent properties].  I would like to pick this up in tomorrows concall.
 My preference is to not expand the current proposal. This proposal isn't
about properties its about render parameters.  I.e. that ability for the
consumer to augment rendering, not the ability for the consumer to impact
portlet state.  The later is seemingly handled via the event mechanism.
