users API missing items

I'm looking specifically at the GET and POST on /d2l/api/lp/(version)/users/

 

Is there a reason that it doesn't return the Role? When you post I have to include the RoleID. But when I retrieve all users it doesn't include the RoleId making me have to hit each user individually to retrieve their roles.

 

It would be nice if the preferred names were also obtainable from /users/. When you are dealing with legal vs preferred names. Again, to retrieve every users/role and preferred names you have to hit 201 API's for 100 users. Instead of just 1 API.
