Some thoughts:

• Portals appear to change their endpoints from time to time, some much more rapidly than others.
• Some portals open and close at intervals.
• Each portal is unique.
• We have at least four instances of portals that target people: Kidnapper, Bugout, the legendary portal that brought the imperials to Fragment, and the River of the seasons.
• It would be nice if the cues about portal identity are visually dramatic.
• I favor soft rules about what actually separates the cosmi and what they are as opposed to hard rules.
• You don't have to deliver the whole answer: dangling stubs are as interesting as fully fleshed solutions

I hope that helps.
