Simple: Pass the current user to the form:
class MyForm(forms.ModelForm):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
self.saved_user = kwargs.pop('user')
super(MyForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
Somewhere else in the code:
form = MyForm(request.POST, user=request.user)
resp.
form = MyForm(user=request.user)
Of course that isn't the only possibility to achieve what you want,
but it's quite straightforward to do it like this.
