Description Szymon Brandys CLA 2011-02-03 05:52:11 EST 
So far we don't really use user roles. All users stored in the user service should have roles assigned to them. Once a user is authenticated, these assigned roles will be respected during the authorization process. It means we should be able to create autorization rules for roles too, not only users.

I have removed the commented out roles support in Bug 446363.
This includes removal of UserRoleHandlerV1 and Roles from the IOrionCredentialsService.

We can create a new bug when we want to add roles into the user service.
