Mwa ha ha! It was $c->SET_AUTHENTICATED all along! This is how you
switch-user/become-user/super-user inside Catalyst.
Try this on for size:
sub su : Chained('/is_admin') PathPart('su') Args(1) {
my ( $self, $c, $id ) = @_;
my $user_was = $c->user;

admin clicks "login as joeuser">open a new browser window as admin>verify
its admin and re-login as a new user. register on session user is admin so
he can log back in.

the middle of a session is to
$c->session->{__user}{id} = $new_id_here; # since "id" = PK
