My preference is to emulate the session functionality in your own classes, i.e. publish / subscribe. Stick a static map in your class and use a unique key generated from objects both threads are aware of to index the object, then you can pull it out when you need to. Synchronize if you need to as well.
I like this better because then you can run junit tests w/o worring about the container.
