The following documentation comment has been logged on the website:

Page: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/user-manag.html
Description:

Thank you for perfect documentation.
I am missing in chapter 21 (Database roles) a section about *listing roles*
both as psql commands and selects to catalogue or pg functions. E.g. to
answer question like What roles is CURRENT_USER member of?

Well, we _could_ sprinkle psql backslash commands in all the places that
reference backslash command features, but that would make the text
awkward.  psql \du does show you want you wanted.
