Brian,

xxforms:get-remote-user()  is a function we specifically expose to the
XForms engine. It is not available to the XSLT processor.

Here is some Saxon documentation on calling Java:

http://www.saxonica.com/documentation9.1/extensibility/functions.html

It's fairly easy to call static methods, but a pain to create objects
and call non-static methods on objects.

Also, ExternalContextToHttpServletRequestWrapper is not the right
place to get the remote user from XSLT.

StaticExternalContext.getStaticContext().getExternalContext().getRequest().getRemoteUser()
would be it.

Note that for security reasons, calling Java functions from XSLT only
works when the oxf:unsafe-xslt processor is used. By default, page
models/page views use oxf:xslt, which is the "safe" version with calls
to external functions disabled.

BTW you don't need to decompile, you can just get the source from github ;)
