Github user jburwell commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1489#issuecomment-215171740 @koushik-das I don't understand how adoption of this feature differs from any other feature. A user deploys the release into a test/pilot environment and determine whether or not it they wish to migrate to it. To be clear, existing users are **not** automatically migrated. Per the FS, this feature alows the definition of custom roles as you describe. For backwards compatibility, all roles must be mapped to one of the four types. I don't understand your point about someone writing a plugin to allow custom roles. This PR is exactly the plugin you describe.
