EP 6.0 User Export Parameter com.sapportals.portal.navigation:uipmode=2

Question

When exporting users from EP 6.0  under "User Administration > Export/Import" , I have noticed that the following parameter is being generated in the text file  :
com.sapportals.portal.navigation:uipmode=2
I've not been able to find any documentation to what this parameter actually is.
This only occurs on some users not all users.
Sometimes the value is =1 and =0.
This is a sample text file generated :
User]
uid=BLOGGJ
role=
group=MY_USER_GROUP1;Everyone;GUEST_USERS_COMPANY;Authenticated Users;
email_address=[email protected]
first_name=Joe
last_name=Blogg
country=GB
language=en
time_zone=Etc/GMT
department=DEMO USET
com.sapportals.portal.navigation:uipmode=2
end
Any help appreciated.

Hi there
The import works without problems.
However, we have Global Work Protect switched on so that it prompts for you to "save" data or "discard" it.
The "personalize" option to set "work protect" has been disabled so that users cannot set their own own Work Protect Feature.
It seems that users that were created with uipmode=2, have a personalized Work Protect which over writes the default global settings and does not prompt you to save data.
When I switched the "personalize" work protect feature back on, this did seem to be the case to check for those users.
I'm looking for some proper documentation to confirm my findings.
Any assistance appreciated.
