 It seems that it is impossible to assign roles to users outside of the
 defaul WP roles. For many users, the User Role Manager plugin is essential
 in granularly managing capabilities for users. Especially on larger,
 multi-author blogs (like mine). It's important that QuickEdit and Edit
 posts don't assume that the only roles available are the default user
 roles and that WordPress respect custom capabilities.
