Storing state in a shared map will compromise thread-safety. So, if we were to
address this in Gson, we should be using ThreadLocal. However, that doesn't 
really
seem all that more convenient than the clients using ThreadLocal directly. So, 
we
decided not to implement this feature.

In case the feature is rejected, please attach the recipe on how to use 
ThreadLocal
variable. Solving my problem, my custom deserialization of Json element depends 
on
its parent element's data. There is no way to get the parent from within of:

public JDataFieldModel deserialize(JsonElement json, Type typeOfT,
JsonDeserializationContext context) throws JsonParseException
{
   ... json.getParent().get("field"); ?
}
