Re: PortletContainer enhancement

No problem, the  'portal driver' is the official name of Pluto's portal.

I have never used the driver, just the container so I don't know where 
to point you config file wise but what you would need to do is:

-Extend DefaultPortletEnvironmentService and override the methods you 
need to for adding the wrappers to provide the attributes.
-Extend DefaultOptionalContainerServices to provide your 
PortletEnviornmentService implementation.

You'll need to find the Spring config that setups the 
PortletContainerImpl and inject your extended OptionalContainerServices 
impl there.
