If role three and its accompanying rights are seldom used, why not  
simply hide the rights until role three is chosen? I have no idea  
what platform you are talking about or the screen real estate you  
have to work with, but I can think of a number of ways to reveal and  
hide a small panel like this. But radio buttons for the roles and  
check boxes for the rights (as you've shown here) seem to make sense.
