I don't know if this helps, but I usually use roles for configuration management and use standalone playbooks for orchestration stuff. I've just found it easier to have more control if I centralize certain aspects (like say an application upgrade) in a single playbook instead of spread around in different roles. But roles are super useful for configuration management.
