parent portlets don't work if you put a block in one folder then later want to see it

Description

If you block a portlet in home/folder1 that was showing in home, and then choose Always Show in /folder1/folder2, then you will see it on the Home Page, not see it at /folder1, not see it at /folder1/folder2. It should show in folder2.

I tried this in the beta version and plone 3 rc 1

I can't reproduce this, but I suspect you're just thinking about this wrong. Were you trying to do this with "parent portlets"?

It works for me with Content Type portlets, but for Partent Portlets this is a nonsensical operation. Why? Because if portlets were blocked at /folder1, then there are no portlets to inherit from /folder1/folder2. It won't "skip past" into the portal root. You need to re-add those portlets if you want them here too.

I agree that this isn't necessarily 100% intuitive, even if it's actually consistent with the way it works for other types of portlets. We'd like to improve this UI, but haven't had any time for 3.0.
