Comment (by dcavins):

 Hi @imath Ha, my first thought about this was also to build a `BP_User`
 class that extends `WP_User`, then I decided to just stick to solving this
 specific problem, which is that the "loggedin_user" isn't persistent--it
 can change over the course of the WP load process.

 I definitely think adding a true `BP_User` would help standardize
 interactions/storage of all of the info that makes up a BP User, but it
 isn't a necessary step in solving this one weird problem. :)

 If we were to add `BP_User`, this class could become an extension of that
 class, and I'd be happy to work on `BP_User` for BP v15.
