Just waiting for OpenOffice (I use Linux) to advance enough to recognize
subsection numbers in Word documents. It conveniently omits all
subsection numbers.

There is a very minor issue. To capture that the consumer supplies new
values when they occur, we can add "the Portlet should use a previously
supplied or a default value". The full sentence would then read
"When a Consumer does not supply a value for a particular
navigationParameter, the Portlet should use a previously supplied or a
default value."

The current sentence is not easily parseable. Could you break this into
two sentences, with the second one talking about cloned portlets?
