Switch back to host/admin

[Tychodewaard]

In other systems there are 2 parts to the identity switcher:

1. "you're logged in as [displayname]
2. back to admin (which releaves you from the identityswitch mode and reverts you back to admin or whatever your role was)

[EPTamminga]

Can you explain a bit more what the idea is?
The module enables you to switch to any user, with a special setting to allow or not allow to switch to a HOST account.

It sounds like how my original control panel's impersonation mode functioned, which is a revert function which returns you back to the original user who triggered the impersonation.

To accomplish this, write out a cookie that's encrypted on impersonation, and then look for that cookie to enable the revert mode back to the original userid. That's basically how mine worked a decade ago.
