	One word: two concepts, IIUC.

	Hendrik's idea of giving a hint as to the appropriate use of the
	URL seems to me both useful, and to have nothing to do with the
	existing 'role' object.  Use of a different word to describe this
	hint in the URI field would perhaps make things clearer, thus:

	  URI: <purpose (or whatever)> <URI> [optional] [multiple]

	A 'role' object could then carry several URL fields, each for
	a different purpose [function/scope/aspect: pick a fav and stick
	with it]
