Thanks.

I think role properties are kind of clunky in general, the way we've
implemented them in PostgreSQL, but I don't really see why these are
worse than anything else. I think we need some way to control the
behavior, and I don't really see a reasonable place to put it other
than a per-role property. And if we're going to do that then they
might as well look like the other properties that we've already got.
Do you have a better idea?
