  From the README:

     su2 is a great program for anyone that has anything to do with
  system administration.  su2 gives you the ability to masquerade with
  the UID of other users.  You use own password to switch.  Probably the
  biggest benefit of su2 is that you retain your own customized shell
  environment.

     For the most part, this program is used by system administrators to
  become root, but su2 has been written to enable much more flexibility
  than this.  Regular users can put a .su2rc file in their home
  directory to enable other users to become them.  While this may sound
  odd, it is sometimes useful to allow a number of users to masquerade
  around with the uid of restricted accounts.  One such example of this
  is a 'www' account which is a common occurrence with the proliferation
  of the web.  While the www user's password may be starred out to
  disable direct logins, root could put a set of usernames into
  ~www/.su2rc to enable these users to 'become' www and do Web
  adiministration.  [This feature can be disabled if you are worried
  about 'account sharing.']
