Roles become cards ?

I agree with Dave Kearns when he says

Good post today ("No User Context Decisions in your Enterprise?") from Pam Dingle ...
Situations #1 and #4 in Pam's post are theoretically resolved using a role based access control approach. This leads me to the following two questions:
  1. Does role equal context ?
  2. Do (virtual) cards become a convenient means for activating one's role ?
Answering my own questions, I would say "yes" for both situations.
