--replace equivalent option?

In a lot of WM and DEs, they have a --replace option so you can easily switch between them. Is there an equivalent option for i3? If not, is there any software that can help me achieve this? I looked at the man page, but it didn't specify.

No. Does not exist. What functionality are you missing concretely?

There is not such thing in i3. You better use a login manager like Slim.
