IMO, getRoles() should return all the roles assigned to this object
independent of from where and how they are referenced.
so user.getRoles() should collect roles from groups/subgroups and
this user.
I cannot think of a usecase where I only want to see the roles
"directly" assigned to the user.
The gui ;)

I have another tag that check is user has a role in the list of

Based on that I display some edit bars (or not)....
I get a user roles from MgnlContext.getUser().getRoles()...
everything worked great until I realized that instead of
assigning 5 roles to each member of the web team
I could create a group, assign those 5 roles to a group and then
assign team members (users) to group...
But then user.getRoles() returns nothing :)
Am I correct to assume I have to check user groups and then grab
roles from each group?
If that is the case then ok but shouldn't user.getRoles() already
do that? Or is my logic flawed?
I think an additional getAllRoles() or similar should do the job.
Feel free to add that feature request to jira.
