Comment (by ryan):

 Roles aren't proper subsets of each other though.  A hierarchy cannot be
 assumed, especially in environments where people have tweaked the roles
 with the Role Manager plugin. Eliminating the confusion of hierarchical
 user editing was one of primary goals when designing the capability
 system.  If you want this, it should be a plugin.  As skeltoac mentioned,
 we'll happily add new plugin hooks if necessary.
