The LoginOnBehalfOf feature. It can be used by Administrators when the webui.user.assumelogin property is set to true to allow the admin to login as another user. Calling this with the Site URI will check if the current logged in user can use this feature without specifying a specific eperson. This will be the case if the logged in user is an Admin and if the webui.user.assumelogin is set to true Calling this with the EPerson URI will check if the current logged in user can perform the loginOnBehalfOf as the given user. This will then additionally check that the eperson given isn't the same as the logged in user and it'll also check that the eperson given isn't an admin
