I want to see exactly what each of my colleagues see when they vew a shared "My Dashboard" that has lots of filtering based on currentUser(). For an individual filter, I can grab a "permalink". I want the equivalent for a Dashboard or the ability to plunk a combobox on a Dashboard and pick an Assignee from a user list. (Same need to parameterize could reasonably apply to other fields too.) Any ideas?

Steps to reproduce the need:

  1. Create a dashboard with several filter-based gadgets in which each filter includes assignee = currentUser()
  2. How can two users see precisely what the other would see?

(Please don't suggest duplicated filters & dashboards with hard-coded Assignee)

I haven't looked into setting up reports as an alternative, but would really like to use these night Dashboards we've set up.

There is a plugin used mainly for administration that allows you to login as other users and see things as they would...
