I'm looking to display the role (anon user, member, reviewer) of the 
creator/owner of a particular piece of CMF content. 
Preferably, I'd look up the role from the member id in Creator() but I'm at 
a loss on how to do this.  My first guess was to look at what's available 
through portal_membership but this only seems to give me the role of 
the current user who's accessing the portal. 
Alternatively, I think I could add a user's role to a document's metadata 
upon creation, but this seems like a backward way of achieving my 
goal. I'm not interested much in the role a user once had when he or 
she created the document, but more in what this role is now. 
Any ideas / code samples welcome!
Norbert
