Kunkel, Matthias [mkunkel], NOV 01, 2016: I have devided this feature wiki request into three pages: Usability Improvements Exercise | Usability Improvements Blog | Usability Improvements Portfolio. The mentioned usability improvements have no common ground and should be treated as three separate requests.
Killing, Alexander [alex], 15.11.2016: I support this request.
JourFixe, ILIAS [jourfixe], Nov 21, 2016: We appreciate this suggestion and schedule it for 5.3.
Killing, Alexander [alex], 3 May, 2017: The page lock issue should be tackled for portfolios with ILIAS 5.3, too, see https://www.ilias.de/mantis/view.php?id=20108.
