How can I switch-to-user non-interactively? #327

I've found references to this, but it says it will interactively ask for a password.

dm-tool switch-to-user USERNAME

I need to be able to just log in that user, non-interactively, either bypassing the password or supplying it in my script. I cannot depend on user interaction.
