Hi JammyDoger,

I didn’t know this route existed! That definitely solves the problem of circumventing [DiscourseConnect](https://meta.discourse.org/t/13045?silent=true), though I haven’t been able to untie the knot so to speak. Impersonate buttons show up for user A though, so I’m assuming they’re currently not impersonating anyone?
