Ship-equivalent for Django user profiles

Question

Is it possible to implement an equivalent sudofor Django profiles? I am using a basic authentication system django.contrib.auth.

Usecase . Sometimes users report errors that are reproduced only in their profile, so every time I change my password, register, fix the error and replace the password with the original one.

I tried to implement this function with login(), but this requires a call authenticate(), which is not an option, because we do not have a password in clear text, just a hashed one.

Is there any smart way to do this? Also, what messed up the user password?

Thank!

I clicked the user panel on the debug toolbar. It works great when it runs in all users. The fork is here.

it also displays some permission information for the primary user group. I did not expand it.

you could borrow logic so that it does not start in debug mode.
