Symptoms

A custom portlet has been built in JDeveloper to display some data in an af:table.
The column header text is defined as #{viewcontrollerBundleX.NAME} and #{viewcontrollerBundleX.DATE}

A consumer application has been built in which has multi-language functionality which consumes the portlet and in its own right has language facility eg some text is defined as #{viewcontrollerBundle.RIGHT_SIDE}.
The View Controller in the consumer has bundles defined for German and English.

When the application is run, it displays correctly in English.
Then a link can be used to change the language.
This also works as expected and the column headings, and other text is shown in German.
However if a change is made to the portlet display such as re-ordering the columns in the portlet, then the language is reverted to English.

This issue reproduces in versions 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.1.5
