Indeed. I'd still advise looking at how the watchlist feature is implemented since it somehow manages to store user preferences in their profiles and you're going to need that feature in your implementation I guess... Not sure whether there's been any recent discussion on creating easy-to)use user profiles extension points - though this kind of use cases (as well as a bunch of others) show they're needed. I think there is a way to access them right now without changing the UserClassSheet (maybe by adding new kind of objects to user profile pages...) Re your implementation, I'd advise having the list of favorited pages stored in one (or many) objects attached to the user profile page of the current user and writing a panel taking the currently logged user UserName as a parameter, retrieving the data from those favorite objects stored on his user page and displaying their values in the panel ...
