Roles and Users

Roles are not treated in any special way on users. Rather, roles are simply a type of claim and as such as treated as such by the IIdentityManagerService interface semantics.

The user interface, though, does treat roles separately: when editing a user a separate roles tab will be displayed. It will list all of the role definitions as defined by the roles from the IIdentityManagerService, and then will enable/disable the associated checkbox if the user has a role claim for the corresponding role. When the value is changed, then the role claim is added or removed via the claim API on the IIdentityManagerService.
