Ok, here goes. Imagine a trading portal (the project I'm currently working on ;-) where buyers, sellers, and producers come together to trade goods and services. Depending on the portal role, each person has different portlets that they can see.
The simplest use case in this portal application is browsing a category tree (myfaces' tree2) in one portlet and having the products of that category displayed on another portlet. If it was one web-application (and it used to be) the pageflow definitions were perfect. However, now we can't use the pageflow navigation for the last node anymore and have to programmatically pass the selected category into IPC so that the target portlet knows which category was selected. Again if i click on one of the products I might want to see the detailed view, however in current seam implementation these details must be displayed in the same portlet window, because I can't @Out the selected product into another portlet. Having written this (and confused even myself) I think that what I really want is being able to @Out variables into the Interportlet Communication API for use with other portlets in the portal :-) Yes, that's it! The pageflow I mentioned earlier would be a beautiful goodie, too, though.
