Changing the default role of a user or group of users should not involve the relabeling of a potentially huge amount of files, never mind that you can't fix /tmp files. Stop the insanity... Then we have the problem of shared homedirs where you have different roles on different machines, and potentially can log in to the same machine with different roles depending on how you login. guest_r if you login via ssh but staff_r via the console.
