There are times where it is super beneficial to let Administrators 'log in as' or 'view as' especially in development so we can see what the end user sees without needing a second person/account available.

Hello Noah Callen! I have a few more questions for you:

Can you provide more details on the specific scenarios where this 'log in as' or 'view as' feature would be most beneficial?
Are there any specific user roles or permissions that should be considered when implementing this feature?
What kind of information or functionality do you expect to access when using the 'log in as' or 'view as' feature?

Discord has this feature where you can preview a channel as if you were a given role, to simulate what would a person in that role see and be able to interact with.

Having the ability to see how others see a solution would be super helpful to make sure everyone has access to everything they need or don't need.

It would be very helpful if system admin had the ability to log in as other users for testing purposes. This would allow easier testing for permissions and troubleshooting user issues they experience.

It would be awesome to be able to double check that security setting are working like the admin wants them to without having to actually ask the person to log in and show you their screen. Right now, the admin just has to trust they did it right, and that everything is working as they believe it should.
