[midPoint] Assing a role to a user via RESTfull interface

[pdbogen at cernu.us]

Howdy, Florin.

I happened to have the same problem as you. I wrote a small tool in Go to 
perform this task; but the short answer is that no, there's not a simpler way; 
what you are doing is, as far as I understand it, completely correct.

If you think having the tool would be helpful to you, I can check with my 
management about releasing it as open source.
