This seems like a good approach to me, what seems wrong to you? It would be nice to have the ability to have inverted component dependencies (i.e. have your Session-level DAOs depend on a request-level Session wrapper, so you don't need a ThreadLocal), but I'm not sure how that could work. Maybe you could have an application level component which wraps the SessionFactory and hands out Sessions, which it could internally map to ThreadLocals for per-request Sessions...
