Comment:

 Why would we not offer all roles as an option? All roles should be
 offered.

 Visual hierarchy would place those with the most access at the top, not
 the bottom. Subscriber should be the bottom choice. It is probably at the
 top b/c when it was coded originally the devs decided that would be the
 default role rather than forcing the admin to choose by making the default
 menu state "Select Role" or something.
