If an admin creates two or more templates with the same id, but different sets of columns, all sorts of weirdness ensues in the portal.

Such as being able to place portlets but not move or remove them.

XML configs with multiple instances of the same ID should not be allowed.

Ignore subsequent duplicates, keep processing rest of templates.

Rolled it back because this fix causes other bugs.

It no longer allows overriding of definitions via subsequent xmls, see block:

for (int i = 0; i < xmls.length; i++) {
Set<ObjectValuePair<String, Boolean>> curLayoutTemplateIds =
_readLayoutTemplates(
servletContextName, servletContext, xmls[i],
pluginPackage);
