Getting a zend view property using a helper called in a layout script

Question

I wrote an assistant to make my main navigator. Part of this helper checks if a user is registered, checking if the user has been assigned to submit

if($this->view->user)
{
//do stuff
}

However, when I call this helper in my script layout, it cannot access this user -> view->; it is NULL (although var_dump ($ this-> view returns a view object, jsut does not have all the properties assigned to it). It can only access user data if I assign its layout in the script view, i.e.

$this->layout()->user = $this->user;

And then in the assistant do

if($this->view->layout()->user)
{
//do stuff
}

Which is a pain as it means in every view of the script I need to add a line to pass data to the layout.

, script, ?
