Review Comment:
   Actually the user needs to be "admin", just being member of the 
administrators group is IMHO not enough. I don't think that there is an option 
yet for a user to enable him to impersonate as anyone else. Might be a good 
extension though. 
   The same limitation applies to the user doing the webconsole request (in 
case the Sling Webconsole Security provider is used), so in fact this option 
does only work for admin with all other users.
   Therefore I would suggest to use a new administrative resource resolver with 
impersonation and whitelist the usage accordingly.
