+1 in principle, though as Carsten says we can implement this in the
engine to avoid the filter.

So maybe we should rather put a single"request context" object in a
ThreadLocal, instead of having different objects manage their own
thread local things?
Something like
public interface ThreadLocalContext {
SlingHttpServletRequest getCurrentRequest();
ResourceResolver getCurrentResourceResolver();
ResourceResolver [] getActiveResourceResolvers();
}
etc...we can then test and evolve this in a cleaner way than with code
scattered around various classes.
For backwards compatibility, we can deprecate [3] and let it use this
new API for now.
