Salesforce community access for system admins

Hi, 

We already have salesforce customer communities implementated in our project. We have adequate number of partner communities licenses available to suppor the application. Recently, we have received a new requirement to provide login capability to system admin users to login in the application on behalf of an account and get to see the application functionalities/data just like any other contact under that account. 
We are aware of "login as community/partner user" feature from contact tab but the request is to allow the system admin to login in communities with their credentials and not in-personalized by some other contact. The system admins definately belong to Salesforce system admin profile and shares salesforce license (not partner community). Is this at all feasible to provide this type of functionalities to system admin users?

There is the "login as" ability for administrators to log in as non-portal users, but there isn't any other sort of "bypass the password" functionality outside of the "Log in as" under the Contact record.
