I think there is no problem of checking subdomain from sfUser. I think for checking subdomain you only need to have a request object - I think it has a host attribute.
Something about subdomains is here http://www.symfony-project.org/blog/2009/03/02/call-the-expert-adding-subdomain-requirements-to-routing-yml But maybe this isn't exactly what you need.
