I think I just had an ah ha moment.  I realized the ModuleIdManager is 
concerned about persistence.  I’m not sure that’s what I need here.  I think 
the piece I was missing it RenderParam.MODULE_ID on the container side.  I’m 
gonna play with this and I’ll be back if I have more questions.

Thanks,
doug
