Comment:

 [attachment:36961.4.diff] only comes with a few minor changes, like
 updated version numbers and improved docs.

 In addition, [attachment:36961.5.diff] has one change that is based on the
 proposed improvements from #38645: With `WP_Roles` getting a `for_blog()`
 method, it would become unnecessary to call `switch_to_blog()` - the more
 granular `WP_Roles::for_blog()` would do the magic. Note that this patch
 will not work correctly at the moment unless you also apply the latest
 patch from #38645.

 Because of this dependency, let's wait with the merge until #38645 is in,
 although this one here is pretty much ready.
