Problem

This issue is to investigate a session switching logic where a user can switch access based off what account they're logged in to, however there is currently no active UI for this apart from logging out and logging back in.

User stories

  1. At home I visit gitlab.com and login with alex@gmail.com (account A)
  2. I go to work and visit gitlab.com/super-secret-co and am prompted to login with group SAML (account B)
  3. I login to the group SAML and account B is now the active account and I can work within gitlab.com/super-secret-co
  4. I go home and visit gitlab.com/open-source-proj and I'm denied access using account B because it's restricted by the super secret co
  5. I click on my profile pic in the top right of the nav bar and switch my session to use account A
  6. Now I can visit gitlab.com/open-source-project

Proposal

Would a "session switcher" solve the user need here?
