Allow "sudo su user" when using file browser and text editor #110

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Some servers I log into require me to sudo su <user> as another user in order to make changes to files. As such, I cannot use snowflake's built-in file browser and text editor.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be nice to have a "sudo su" option when using the file browser or text editor to perform all actions under the context of a specified user.

Describe alternatives you've considered For this problem, the only solution is to not use the file-browser and text editor when dealing with these servers, but this kind of defeats the purpose of using Snowflake.

I will check if this can be implemented.
