 > How would additional user roles either custom added or by a plugin
 relate to the hierarchy of the user roles in core, would those be based on
 user capabilities, for example WooCommerce adds in two new user roles,
 Customer and Shop Manager.

 While related, I think this is out of scope for this ticket as this is
 only about not resetting the index of the currently selected role.

 After proposed patch (40162.diff) here's how it appears like:
