Probably the hardest challenge in developing a platform that has applications that communicate cross context is the radical advice to put items in an insecure setting. For example, you might have some suggest that just dump stuff in the the browser jsession cookie and than pick up on the borowser client side for the other applicaitn in a different cotnext. That is not only worng but a secutiry violation.
The toher challenge is the other cross context communication beyond th epassing messages containing session information as the appplicaiotn context containers maybe different; for example, portlet and servlet.
