It was a real issue for me, just minutes ago.  I was working on
someone else's computer and was unable to log into Trac as myself.

Impractical workaround:  temporarily delete the password for the user
that is logged on.  Restart Trac.  Log out and try to log back in.
Trac will then prompt for the username/password again, allowing you to
log in as a different user.  Restore the password.  Restart Trac.

Better workaround (maybe could be done with a plugin):  when click
logout, rather than staying on the current screen display a logout
screen with the option to log in as a different user.  I don't know if
implementing that is practical or not (I don't understand the "way
HTTP is" well enough).
