The first browser I tried this in had no JS support (links2).  The second 
had JS support, but I'm guessing that it didn't quite have the correct 
support (edbrowse--a scriptable commandline browser--waaaay oldschool, but 
usually works better than the other textmode stuff available).

The third browser I tried was Pockit IE on a cellphone I had available, 
and that worked to add the user.  I'm guessing that there is some JS 
element at play here which is getting in my way, although why there should 
be JS involved in a roles selection, I know not.

So while the problem is not solved, there is a workaround.  I would guess 
that FireFox can handle this, but I haven't cracked open the laptop to 
try it yet.

Any ideas on what might be going on?
