[jboss-dev] Integration SPI for portal

I want to determine if we need to define an integration SPI for the portal project: Portlet container implementations have to modify web archives in order to have portlet application deployed transparently (that is without requiring a pre modification of the web archive). The modifications can consist in modifying the web.xml, add a tld file. Also the portlet container service needs to be aware of all registered web applications by maintaining a registry usually by receiving events that signal deploy and undeploy. JavaEE does not offer solution today for this problem and we need that feature in the most portable way. What do you think ?
