Oh, great, thanks! And, yeah, I'm not as good as I should be about
updating the commitfest app. As for committing it, I was thinking I
would but you're certainly welcome to if you're interested. I would
like this to be committed soonish as it will then allow Adam to rebase
the patch which adds the various role attributes discussed previously on
top of the representation changes. I suspect he's done some work in
that direction already, but I keep asking for changes to this patch
which would then ripple down into the other.

That's certainly a good point. I'm inclined to suggest that there be an
Assert() check in check_role_attribute(), or were you thinking of
something else..?
Thanks!
