Allow an admin to "act" as a regular user.
------------------------------------------

                 Key: MASHUP-665
                 URL: http://wso2.org/jira/browse/MASHUP-665
             Project: WSO2 Mashup Server
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Jonathan Marsh
            Assignee: Channa Gunawardena
             Fix For: 1.1


There are times when an admin wants to appear as a regular user, for instance:
1) Present a more typical user interface for demos
2) "safety catch" so that no accidental damage can be done (e.g. deleting a tag 
that the user would otherwise be unauthorized to delete.)
3) Reducing visual clutter of the interface when admin functions aren't 
required.

I think we could manifest this in the UI with an Admin task "Act like a user", 
which would suppress all admin-specific UI changes except for a link "Act as an 
admin" which would restore all admin UI functionality.

Ideally this would be reflected down into the Registry permissions handler, but 
surface UI might suffice as well.
