      1. Proposed title of this feature request

      Create a secure method to restore ClusterRoles .

      2. What is the nature and description of the request?

      In openshift 3.11 we were able to create a 'bootstrap-policy-file' which allows us to restore ClusterRoles in case they were accidentally deleted (https://access.redhat.com/solutions/4489031) 

      This feature was deprecated in Openshift 4.1 and it's noted on the release notes that it was due to the operator managing the functions internally. (https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/openshift_container_platform/4.1/html-single/release_notes/index)

      In openshift 4.x If customer accidentally deletes the clusterroles, they'll require to recreate them manually, because there is no way to recover them. (https://access.redhat.com/solutions/6989151)

      3. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)

      It is really easy to delete all the clusterroles and many of our customer are not openshift experts.

      Customer will benefit from having an option that allows them to restore the ClusterRoles configuration without having to do a full etcd restore. 

      4. List any affected packages or components.

      Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.x
