Re:Use of portals in Components was SFA main page in trunk messed up

I looked and it was confusing and not intuitive on the help
First question from a users point of view
What is a Portal, as I search the page for something that says portal.
So I am interested in help on the User Names
I look at the list and see nothing that refers to User names.
Again I look around the page to see anything label as User Login Portal.

Now because I am familar with ofbiz I guessed the user Login Portal is 
the one for User Names.

I have not run one of my apps that call party pages against this version.
I expect i will have to modify. That does not make me happy camper with 
50 apps to do that with.

I agree that this is confusing in SFA case. And this is not because there is no SFA help. We should care about this, it hides the 
right help (SFA case for instance)

I put a comment in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3951
