30.17. enabled_roles
The view enabled_roles identifies all groups that the current user is a member of. (A role is the same thing as a group.) The difference between this view and applicable_roles is that in the future there may be a mechanism to enable and disable groups during a session. In that case this view identifies those groups that are currently enabled.
