Can I see the map as a specific PC?

As a GM, is there a way (without logging in as a PC) to see the map as a specific player? It would help me place lighting a lot if I could easily see what the guy that has no special vision, low light vision, or darkvision can see, by "seeing" through their eyes. Edit: Or even if I could make a NPC token and see through its eyes, where I could set their vision to various different types, without logging in as a PC.

click on the token you want to 'see as' then hit control-L , then when you want to see as GM again just click the map anywhere
Wow, thank you so much. that's exactly what I was looking for. I'm thrilled it's a feature
Thx DK Heinrich!  I was having a player complaining that he couldn't see very far.  I couldn't figure out to see what he sees while DM'ing the game.  He thought it was a bug that he couldn't see very far when it was simply the fact that he was playing as a human in a dungeon with no lights.
