'View as Security Group' function Merged

I feel that it would be very useful to have a function where one could temporarily use 4Projects as if they were in a specific security group to ensure that it has been set up correctly. This could be as simple as a single button that says 'View as this Security Group' where it opens a new window with 4P acting as if you were in that security group, so it could be tested.
Currently, as far as I am aware, the only way of doing this would be to set up a new user and add them to each security group to test one at a time, so it would be much easier and faster to have a function like this.

    The support guys are able to quickly do this when helping us with issues so it must be possible - I think the term they use is "mirroring profile".  I think it would be useful and save a lot of time if they gave the Superusers he same ability/rights to do this.

    This would be so much easier than having to create a fake user, add them to a security group, log out as yourself and log in as them so you can clarify exactly what that Security Group can see.
