----------------------------------------

Looks good. Do you want to qualify fields in new structs with required ?

> As discussed in HIVE-5931, it will be cleaner to have the information about Role to role member mapping removed from the Role object, as it is not part of a logical Role. This information not relevant for actions such as creating a Role.
> As part of this change  get_role_grants_for_principal api will be added, so that it can be used in place of  list_roles, when role mapping information is desired.
