Anything I've missed, or is there a simpler way of achieving this?

No simpler way I'm afraid… and just one area you've missed. There's a specific check in the SiteService to make sure the requested role is SiteConsumer. I'm not sure of the design history behind this check - I'll ask internally.

Anyway, you'll have to grab the code and modify the if statement in SiteServiceImpl.java (org.alfresco.repo.site.SiteServiceImpl) around line #1286 to allow through SiteModel.SITE_COLLABORATOR too.

Thanks,
Mike
