Comment:

 Hmm interesting. I often use this to assign a post to a user without
 having to give them all the rights to edit the post as well. So I
 temporarily change their role, assign the post, and then make them a
 subscriber.

 I'd love to hear some other opinions on this, but personally I think this
 is a feature.
