I know that... i thought that i could do:

org.jahia.services.usermanager.JahiaDBUser p = request.getUserPrincipal();

and in my opinion, i think we should be able do it...  if we login as Admin
or Root, we should  access to jahia information, because it could be
useful....

way (documentation) to implement it?

I had another question.... I am developing an portlet, and any portlet can
