This is a potential problem they seemed to have almost ignored with Vista. I have
looked and looked and, unless in safe mode or classic logon, there is no way to logon
to an account not on the Welcome screen. Looks like Windows 7 is the same.
I have even seen claims the the original double Ctrl-Alt-Delete in XP was kludge:
"a fallback just in case there turned out to be some important logon scenario that
the new Welcome screen failed to cover, but which the designers had failed to take
into account by simple oversight. Scenarios such as smartcard or fingerprint logon."
I think the only way to logon as Administrator is through safe mode - which is enough
if you need to fix a corrupt profile, I guess...
