Always Query Using Current User in Parse iOS

As I understand it, I can auto-populate the ACL column in any newly-added records in Parse by setting this:

PFACL.setDefaultACL(PFACL(), withAccessForCurrentUser: true)

Is there a way to always perform queries using PFUser.currentUser() as a filter by default? Or do I have to specify the user with every query?

query.whereKey("user", equalTo: PFUser.currentUser()!)

Thanks in advance.

It turns out that I don't need to specify the currentUser() or the ACL at all. It happens automatically as long as a PFUser is logged in.

I think there is no such features in Parse SDK. But you can always use swift features like extensions to add required functional:

extension PFQuery {
    class func userQueryForClassName(className: String) -> PFQuery {
        let query = PFQuery(className: className)
        query.whereKey("user", equalTo: PFUser.currentUser()!)
        return query;
    }
}

let query = PFQuery.userQueryForClassName("test")
