Switching users using WinSCP between different accounts

Question

Is there way to switch between user accounts using WinSCP?

When I am using PuTTY, I can use su command to switch users between different accounts.

There is a FAQ for this question on WinSCP site:
How do I change user after login (e.g. su root)?

You need to specify the sudo command in WinSCP session settings, as custom shell (if you are using SCP) or use sudo in custom SFTP server startup command (if you are using SFTP).

Though there are some limitations, notably that you need to configure sudo not to require a password.
