Hello, im not able to see any role in API because i cant allow 'administer permissions' for our api users. I know its not a bug of jsonapi module. Does anyone have any idea how to allow user to just "view" roles??? 

{
    "data": [],
    "meta": {
        "errors": [
            {
                "title": "Forbidden",
                "status": 403,
                "detail": "The current user is not allowed to GET the selected resource. The 'administer permissions' permission is required.",
                "links": {
                    "info": "http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html#sec10.4.4"
                },
                "code": 0,
                "id": "/user_role--user_role/8e91e43c-4987-4a42-b37e-4e5586e923b4",
                "source": {
                    "pointer": "/data"
                }
            },

    @mkolar We're going to give this snippet a spin here for an internal API integration that needs to fetch role information from sites. One thing I noticed -- right now the snippet you provided doesn't confirm that the entity type is a user, correct? So, theoretically any roles field in any entity would be impacted.

    I'm thankful for the snippet, but just wanted to point out for others using the snippet that they might want some additional checks in their hook implementation.
