What's the latest on this?
I'd be willing to take a patch for this, but he same rules as for

If we manage to do that, introduce rolefulfilment= in units which we
would define those standardized predefined set of roles as in for
httpd.service we might have rolefulfilment=web server, for postgresql,
rolefulfilment=database server etc. so you could list/query

From my point of view roles are human representation of the primary
duty the machine performs it's not the environment they are run in.
( like development,staging,production ) nor is it the components
I don't see much value in choosing a role from a predefined list.
Rarely do machines fit into one single, straightforward role.
It would be more useful to support machine tags/labels/roles that map
