* Edited Read-Only Admin role to reflect changes to priviliges. * Changed several role names to match the names in reported by Couchbase (i.e. Query Manage Sequences -> Manage Sequences). * Cleanup of lingering references to Local and External User Admin roles. * In several cases, updated the roles requirements for REST API calls. These were mainly determined by using a script that calls he endpoints with every possible role.

Fixes to roles references are mainly in the REST API docs. It's probably easiest to just view the diff for these. In most cases, the allowed roles were verified using a script that brute force calls the REST API endpoint with a user with a single role assigned to them. In particular, this dramatically increased the list of roles that can access the identify orchestrator REST API endpoint.
