You can add username=nagiosadmin&ticket=yourtickethere to any URL which will allow you to login as that user with your API key. The other option, is using the Admin -> Automatic Login feature, which will automatically login as x user, and prompt one to logout.

Nope, that's the only way to do so. If you're looking for something different, I can file a feature request that could possibly make it into a future version.

You can still configure Apache to use that for XI, it's just you'd still need the PHP session auth which is what the other steps take care of.
