Tanel,

 you can't create a public synonym owned by a role, sorry if I wasn't clear. But public synonyms are available to all users, regardless of the role you assign to the user. So you have to use public synonyms when you use roles, unless you either specify the object owner name in all references or, as I was gently reminded, you use set current_schema to the object owner.

Because I have applications that use data from multiple owners, I have to use public synonyms. However, I am going to see if I can use set current_schema wherever possible in the future.
