[jboss-user] [JBoss Portal] - Dashboard concept is broken

[webmascon]

Why do we need those Dashboards at all? The whole concept of Dashboard is broken and confusing.

Suppose I have two portals with two different layouts: 3 columns and 2 columns

I add pages from those portals to Dashboard which may have 1 column layout.

Ta-da! None of the added pages is displayed correctly (portles are missing and rearranged) - because Dashboard dictates what layout to use. 

This makes users confused and frustrated.

What makes them confused even more is that they can drag and drop portlets on their Dashboard but not on a Portal. The same portlet behaves differently and creates a lot of confusion.
