- as you noticed - it's bad UI to put global information there, but
not always.

bar's left side. There is username at the right side on the portal
screen. However, on the application screens username is not displayed

I'd suggest to make username (current identity) visible _always_ on
the bar. Using more than username, knowledge who is really logged in
is clearly needed.
