I think it would be a good idea to have admin.stopImpersonating() so admin don't have to logout of impersonated user (or wait for session to end). Also an admin.editUser() as a way of editing a users information.

Describe the solution you'd like

There is already the impersonatedBy (id) in the useSession(), so it could just be a switch back.

For user edit, it could just use a similar structure as the user.updateUser() but for Admins.

What I did was save the admin session in a cookie called admin_session
Then after impersonation - It switches around the session cookies and you are back.
Logic like this should be implemented. +1
