This would be my approach, but it depends on how often you need the currentUser object - bear in mind that the object is probably in the Hibernate 2nd level cache anyway.  It will also play nice with all your other objects in this scenario.  Otherwise you can create a SESSION scoped SMPC (just set the scope in components.xml) - but it will be a different SMPC from your normal one, so you'll get exceptions if you try to manage the wrong object in the wrong PC.
