The showManagedPortlets is true by default.  This preference will add to the displayed set, portlets that a user can manage.  Note, that if showAllPortlets is true, the showAllPortlets set will already include any managed portlets.

Proposed: Add another preference to hide certain admin portlets.  So you can show all but a few (ex: Portal Administration)

Categories

Listed on every portlet's entry page is a list of categories that a portlet belongs too.  Clicking any of the categories will send the user back to the initial landing page with the category clicked in the filter.

Featured Portlets!

In class org.jasig.portal.portlets.marketplace.PortletMarketplaceController is a static field:

private static String FEATURED_CATEGORY_NAME="Featured";

Any portlet with that as a category will become a "Featured" portlet.  Featured portlets are highlighted on the main landing page.  0 featured portlets and nothing (including the label) is shown.  If there is an odd number of featured portlets, the first appears in the middle, then the rest appears 2 per row.  The label is in the message.properties file for easy changing.
