For handling rockscreen apps, new role:rockscreen is need.
Exsamples:
- MarketPlace show lockscreen apps in lockscreen categories.
- Settings app show only lockscreen apps in the menu of switching lockscreens.
- Homescreen don't show lockscreen app icons.

Now, the roles seem to be as follows: 'system', 'input', 'homescreen', 'search'.
And i want know the necessary works for adding new role.
- Is some definitions necessary somewhere?
- Is the modification of Gecko side necessary?

Hi, Greg
We don't have how to start to implement about this bug...

So, could you introduce any person who is familiar with this bug?

This may need more discussions on the dev-webapi mailing list. Maybe you can send a mail to ask others' opinion? 

(With the reason this feature need to be implemented. I suggest you use the 'Gareth's six questions' format, to prevent people ask you again and again:

- Is this a good idea?
- What problem does it solve (and for whom)?
- Is it high priority?
- Are there any risks involved in doing this?
- Who should I ask for input?
- Who should at least know that this is happening?
