Hello,
While working with roles I found it odd that you can add a Display Name
for a role but the WP_Role class and the WP_Roles function get_role don't
provide this information.
Please add $display_name as a public attribute of WP_Role so it's
available on that object and would be returned in the get_role function.
Thank you
P.S. Currently to access this information you have to use the WP_Roles as
follows;
{{{#!php
<?php
$wp_roles->roles[$role]['name'];
}}}
