Description of problem:
Pulp-admin supports login command from one user to another without prior logout.
So far, every new login command rewrite/removes the granted certificate of the previous user. After logout command the user doesn't have his session back with a granted certificate anymore. So s/he has to login again.
Nested sessions like in bash shell would be nice feature especially for users with admin roles.
Steps to Reproduce:
pulp-admin login -u admin -p admin
Successfully logged in. Session certificate will expire at Oct 9 20:19:42 2015
GMT.

Authentication Failed
Use the login command to authenticate with the server and download a session
certificate for use in future calls to this script. If credentials were
specified, please double check the username and password and attempt the request
again.
Expected results:
1. Log as user #1
2. Execute some pulp-admin commands without -u/-p options
3. Log as user #2 without logout from the user #1 session
4. Execute some pulp-admin commands without -u/-p options as user #2
5. logout
6. return back to the session of user #1 and be able to execute pulp-admin commands without -u/-p options since the certificate of user #1 should be still valid

- Priority changed from Normal to Low
Can you think of any other applications that support this? It seems like an unusual feature to me.
