> In {{ListPermissionsStatement}} and {{ListRolesStatement}} we perform a role check existence before ensuring the logged in user has access to list roles or permissions of that user.
> This could allow someone without access to list roles or permissions to check for existence of a role in the database, as the error message will show {{role foo does not exist}}.
> We should reverse the conditions and perform the validation before performing the role check.
