menus and fragments

What do you all think about menus addressing fragments?
Im thinking about having n portlets all sharing the same fragment 
collection area in psml, but only one can be shown at a time.
Hey, sounds like a J1 card controller...

Having this feature in J2 would be a big plus. Depending on an action a 
different portlet would be active (view).

This functionality could be achieved in different ways:

    * Having a general-purpose-portlet that creates an instance of a
      portlet depending on the action param
    * A layout that instantiates a portlet depending on the action
      param. All supported portlets would be defined in the psml. This
      approach sounds like the J1 card controller.

Any other ideas how to achieve this functionality?

Roger
