I need to switch users in a playbook: first I need to do some tasks as a 
root user then I need to change to a limited user and do the rest with that.

My playbook looks like this:

> - name: Preparation
>   vars: 
>     - ansible_ssh_user: root
>     - ansible_ssh_private_key_file: ~/.ssh/site-root
>   ...
>     
> - name: Main play
>   vars: 
>     - ansible_ssh_user: ci
>     - ansible_ssh_private_key_file: ~/.ssh/site-ci
>
  ... 
>

This works but I feel that nasty (poor design):
- redundant configuration (in hosts and 2 plays)
- need to switch and then switch back

What is the Best practice to achieve that?
