session.invalidate() doesn't affect userPrincipal value - why?

Calling session.invalidate() on my j2ee-dec-sec form-based (aka 
j_security_check) logged-in user's session doesn't register the change 
within the request - that is the current request. The following request 
has no principal associated with it but I need the change to register 
with the request immediately.

How do I update the request so that immediately after 
session.invalidate(), getUserPrincipal() returns null? I need 
getUserPrincipal() to return an accurate value within my presentation 
layer - i.e. template selection?

Thanks
Joe
