Bug Description
As many people prefer to not use roles very heavily I think it would be in our best interest in attracting as much support as possible. To enable the searches for endpoints and other functions to use attributes,recipes, or roles. It should be pretty easy to build a fall-through in the various search methods.
What I want to understand is how we would prefer the default precedence to be.
I suppose also we could set a preferred search method attribute.
Feedback is appreciated. I intend on doing this work for our implementation.
P.S.
In setting up a reference implementation I ran into a number of issue getting roles working right. One local issue is developing with chef-zero, which doesn't support .rb roles. So I had to convert everything over to .json roles (which brings my local out of sync with upstream). Another was the memcached bugs that have patches pending.

Role names and recipe names change as people start composing lib books into app/wrapper books. Attributes stay the same more often imho. +1
