What I want to be able to do is to set different bunches of resource management settings for various non-login inherited roles, and be able to choose profiles via a SET ROLE. The reason to do this, btw, instead of defining various login roles, is that different login roles can't share the same connection pool.

The question is why this should be tied to SET ROLE, which already has
well defined semantics that don't include any such behavior.

Mostly because we don't have anywhere else to hang a "settings profile" than ROLEs. And currently, we can define settings with roles; the fact that those settings materially only apply to login roles and not to non-login roles could even be seen as inconsistent.
