Tanel, I'm fairly sure that Rachel was not implying that a role could own a synonym, public or private.
The point was that using role based privilege management, you either create private synonyms for each user, or create public synonyms. Another alternative is a logon trigger that does an 'alter session set current_schema=schema', though that might become unwieldy with a large number of users, or when forced to work with an app that connects/disconnects repeatedly.
