Thank you for supporting this patch.
Valid until -> Password valid until: the timestamp value already
forces a wide column, adding the word Password to the header to
clarify what is valid simply provides the same context that the create
role page provides when it shows the valid until attribute immediately
below the password attribute. Leaving "valid until" alone retains the
attribute name tieback.
Connection limit -> Con. limit: maybe this gets rejected on
translation grounds but the abbreviation here seems obvious and shaves
7 characters off the mandatory width for a column that occupies 12
characters more than the values require.
Yes, it can be done.
<bikeshedding again>
I still have some doubts about these columns. Possibly these columns
changes very rare,
not very often. So, maybe a better solution is to show them only in \du+.
In such case wide of columns is not a problem. But such change requires
changing
"Attributes" column back to one line.

Even without those changes I as reviewer would concur with the
proposal and try to move this on from bike-shedding to a go/no-go
decision (by marking it Ready to Commit) as to whether this is an
improvement over the status quo.

Robert's idea (detailed role permissions report with \du rolename) can
be implemented as a separate work.
