Chris Laprun commented on JBPORTAL-1121:
----------------------------------------

While I understand the "demo" aspect of it, I personally find confusing that you can move windows around without the Portal caring about it. It's going to cause confusion, and I don't think it looks professional. An alert could alleviate the confusion but it still doesn't prevent the "show-off" syndrome. I suggest that dnd should be disabled for shared pages or implement the copy-on-change solution where the Portal would create a private page based on the shared page... 

Another quicker solution would be to create a sandbox page where users can play around with dnd and other features without having an impact on the rest of the Portal. This page should be marked as such and state something to the effect of "We recommend you remove this page, blah, blah..." :)

> When users first arrive to the portal home page after installing JBP, it is a good idea to allow them to test out drag and drop immediatly.  However, editing shared pages doesn't persist for longer than the user session.  We need to make sure that users understand that by giving them some kind of notification when they drag a portlet on a shared page as an anonymous user.
