Actually the only reason I want to know is that tech support wants to
know when a user calls in.
I just want to place some text in the UI, so that indicates whether
the user has admin rights or not.

Don't try to head the user off at the pass. If you need the user to
authenticate as an administrator, don't disable that functionality
simply because the user is not an administrator. The authorization
interface allows authenticating as any administrator, not just the
currently logged-in user.
