So the roles are granular things like:
publisher
reviewer
i.e., the things that your CFCs might align with.
Then in your cflogin, when you do your authentication, you can retrieve
the group for that user and then the roles for that group and use
cfloginuser to remember the roles (not the group).
That way you can control the roles (CF) that each group has independently.
