For portlet preferences at instance level, we could use the admin portlet to change the preferences. However, there is no custom GUI available, this creates a huge drawback because the preferences data are of a raw type. For example, if a "Category" portlet displays some products in a Category that is identified by a catID, and the catID is in portlet preferences, system admin MUST work out the catID in order to change the category to be displayed on the "Category" portlet. I know we could use EDIT mode to provide a nice GUI, but the preferences are not stored at an instance level, it is stored on a per user / per instance level. Is there anyway to overcome this?
