Actually, Chris, I was planning to write a page like this, because I needed it as background to some of the new stuff in Moodle 2.0 I need to document. It would be great if you wrote it for me. However, I think the title should be plain "Contexts", or "Contexts in Moodle", because, at least in Moodle 2.0, Conexts affect more than just Roles.
