I think this is a regression. In conf, I get a 503 response where it should send a validation error. An exception is thrown indicating that the session is already closed or session is null.

It turns out that when principal() is used, it returns an entity which is not part of the current session.

x = ((SecurityContext)ThreadLocalPage.getEnv().getSessionVariable("securityContext")).getPrincipal();
utils.HibernateUtil.getCurrentSession().contains( x ) returns false.
