I can see how that might help with HOST restrictions where you want to
change hosts in the middle, but here my restrictions are role based
and the hosts for those roles are not changing at runtime.

Based on Jamis' comment in that thread "If you set the HOSTS
environment variable, all tasks will use it,
instead of whatever hosts list they might have otherwise. " I even
tried explicitly hard coding setting the ROLES variable, but that
didn't really help anything.  Perhaps that's a HOSTS vs ROLES
behavior, I'm not sure.  Should I try to set the HOSTS variable with
the hosts for the ROLES I've specified?  Again, I'm not changing HOSTS
(or ROLES) in midstream, so I'm not sure why "changing" these
variables to the same value as the one specified when invoking cap
would help, unless there is some destructive processing done to the
ROLES set on startup that I'm now having to override in my task.
