> Portlet tools currently has a hard dependency on Seam, which kinda bothers us with JBDS-3286.
> While severing this dependency is a WIP (JBIDE-19316), another question comes to mind : is portlet still necessary?
> It doesn't seem like a technology we're trying to promote, tooling has been in maintenance mode for months if not years. Is it not time to [let it go|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moSFlvxnbgk&t=56s]?
