I want to share the way I changed the portlets for new.dzug.org:

Page template 'main_portlet'
--------
<div class="box"
      tal:attributes="id portlet_id|default"
      metal:define-macro="portlet">
   <div class="box-title">
     <h2 tal:content="portlet_title|default">Untitled</h2>
   </div>
   <div class="box-body"><metal:slot define-slot="portlet_body">
     Empty slot!
   </metal:slot></div>
</div>
--------

Page template 'demo_portlet'
--------
<metal:macro define-macro="portlet"
              tal:condition="python:1"
              tal:define="portlet_title string:Demo portlet;
                          portlet_id string:demo-portlet">
<metal:portlet use-macro="here/main_portlet/macros/portlet">
   <metal:body fill-slot="portlet_body">
     Demo content.
   </metal:body>
</metal:portlet></metal:macro>
--------

Pro's:

* Reuseable portlet structure

* <your pros's here>

Con's:

* Increasing complexity

* Maybe perfomance?

* Not compatible with current Plone portlets

* I18n not tested but should work

* <your con's here>
