Comment:

 [attachment:22212.4.patch 22212.4.patch] uses the already existing meta
 query structure and does the following:

 * Allows multiple roles to be passed for `role`, either as a comma-
 separated string or as an array. (`AND` relation)
 * `WP_User_Query` now takes a `role__in` array. (`OR` relation)
 * Also takes a `role__not_in` array. (`AND` relation)
 * Adds unit tests

 It'd be great if this could be considered for 4.4.
