[Bf-committers] what to do with roll for bones?

[P. Visser]

That's my point,

In pose mode you can't translate the head and tail of a bone separately.

See http://colladablender.illusoft.com/screens/moveJoint1.jpg and
http://colladablender.illusoft.com/screens/moveJoint2.jpg

The selected node is translated to the right. This can be animated over
time. In Blender that is not possible without disconnecting the child bone
from its parent.
