+  Implicit role validate_argument_spec tasks now only validate documented role params.
+  Previously, all role params had to be documented, making it difficult to use
+  dependencies (which often specify role params for ansible-galaxy install) or overriding
+  variables not specific to the dependency (such as connection variables).
