 Description   

"If a user has been granted a role, they do not automatically obtain all permissions associated with that role. These permissions are only in use when the user activates the role with the SET ROLE statement."
https://mariadb.com/kb/en/grant/#roles

This information should be added in below page too.

But it is saying that you should use set default role from https://mariadb.com/kb/en/set-role/

From MariaDB 10.1.1, an automatic SET ROLE is implicitly performed when a user connects if that user has been assigned a default role. See SET DEFAULT ROLE.

But agree that having saying explicitly wouldn't harm.

jacob.moorman from our discussion, I decided to reassign Kenneth's ticket to you?
