+<ul>
+  <li><i>API feature in Portlet 2.0 support has been reverted</i> (<a href="http://dev.vaadin.com/ticket/4143">#4143</a>)</li>
+  <ul>
+
+    <li>Vaadin 6.2.1 introduced a possibility to associate a portlet
+               mode with a window, which would simplify switching a portlet to
+               another mode. This worked by adding an application-level window with a
+               name that matches the mode name, such as "edit". You could acquire the
+               mode name with, for example, <tt>PortletMode.EDIT.toString()</tt>.</li>
+
+    <li>The feature leads to an identity problem when a window with the
+               same name is open in more than one browser window. There is no simple
+               way to work around this new problem and we therefore revert the bad
+               solution and see of we can find a better solution at a later time.</li>
+
+       <li>Reverting this feature breaks backward compatibility with the
+               Portlet 2.0 support in Vaadin versions 6.2.1 to 6.2.3</li>
+
+    <li>The Portlet 2.0 support is now compatible with Vaadin 6.2.0.</li>
+  </ul>
