We needed to have our own user profile but we kept the Jetspeed user and role and added the additional information is a user table that used the same username as a link between the 2 systems. When we wanted to add/delete/maintain a role on a user, we did this on the Jetspeed side. This enabled us to use all the existing Jetspeed functionality that depends on roles while having our code in control of the maintenance of roles.
This means no modification of Jetspeed for this purpose.
We do have some custom pipelines and valves to handle SSO from client portals and to do things like get a privacy consent form displayed and signed the first time a user logs in.

If you do not use Jetspeed's roles, then you will have lots of things to do to get the right content and portlets on a page if they depend on your roles. You will lose a lot of the value of Jetspeed and end up recreating a lot of its functionality in your code.
