Sign-In as User to Test ACP Permissions

I occasionally use the Sign-in feature in the ACP to test a user's view so that I'm seeing things as they do. It's particularly helpful to take screenshots when showing them how to do stuff. 

Can I do the same thing somehow to verify / test / troubleshoot ACP setups? If I Sign-in as a member with limited ACP access (say, giving a club secretary access to bulk mail) I can't figure out how to access the ACP as them. If signed in as the user on the front-end choosing AdminCP naturally forces me to log in again, which I can only do as myself (since I don't know or want to know their password). 

Is it possible to test ACP access from a specific member's perspective?

It is not possible from the ACP side. Best way to duplicate would be to create a test user and assign them the new administration group you want to test
