Thanks. I still consider this a usability bug. Even in enterprise IT, it is not uncommon to apply users directly to certain databases if there is only one user account that will be used to access a database (besides admin users, who are all probably members of a superadmin role). Also, given how Postgres has collapsed users into roles, it makes even less sense.
The Grant Wizard's Privileges tab definitely has a bug. It wasn't showing roles under Group Roles.
And the Group Roles or Login Roles sections ought to be renamed to conform to standard terms or explained better.
