I am facing a issue where I do see that PortletModeHandlerMapping's handler gets called all the time before it decided the correct handler of PortletModeParameterHandlerMapping. I have taken the sample books example.

Here booksController gets invoked everytime Submit occurs.

Is it the correct behaviour.
