+ The view <code class="literal">enabled_roles</code> identifies the currently
+ <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">enabled roles</span>”</span>. The enabled roles are recursively
+ defined as the current user together with all roles that have been
+ granted to the enabled roles with automatic inheritance. In other
+ words, these are all roles that the current user has direct or
+ indirect, automatically inheriting membership in.

+ For permission checking, the set of <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">applicable roles</span>”</span>
+ is applied, which can be broader than the set of enabled roles. So
+ generally, it is better to use the view
+ <code class="literal">applicable_roles</code> instead of this one; See
+ <a class="xref" href="infoschema-applicable-roles.html" title="37.5. applicable_roles">Section 37.5</a> for details on
