`ROLE_PREVIOUS_ADMIN` is added to the token roles if the session is an impersonation. Since https://github.com/symfony/symfony/pull/31189 we have the `IS_IMPERSONATOR` attribute which can be used for the same reason. I propose to deprecate the `ROLE_PREVIOUS_ADMIN`:
* This is not what roles are for ([resulting in hacking this exception in `AbstractToken`](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/blob/5.0/src/Symfony/Component/Security/Core/Authentication/Token/AbstractToken.php#L275-L277))
* The role isn't very descriptive
* I don't like having 2 ways of doing exactly the same thing
* While every application with impersonation enabled probably needs to be updated, the update is as simple as replacing `ROLE_PREVIOUS_ADMIN` with `IS_IMPERSONATOR`: `find ./ -type f -exec sed -i 's/ROLE_PREVIOUS_ADMIN/IS_IMPERSONATOR/g' {} +`
---
I'm a bit unsure on how to deprecate this role, but I think having it in `RoleVoter` is probably the safest (`isGranted()` and variants + `AccessDecisionManager#decide()` all use this voter to check if the token has this role).
