I just found out an issue when storing 'originatedRegionUuid' in
user/account/domainVO in case of removing them
because the record is actually removed and it is not recommended to access
attributes of the removed.

So I'd like to store the 'originatedRegionUuid' in the
'CallContext.current()' as the user/account/domain objects are stored when
they have been changed instead of storing it in their tables.

Let me know if you have any issue with this.
Thanks
Alex Ough
