Afaik, it's not so hard to add new (empty) role right now.

1. you need to add new role in json file
https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-web/blob/master/nailgun/nailgun/fixtures/openstack.json#L19-L39

(pay attention that we have different parameters for each OS)

2. create default volume partitioning for your role
https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-web/blob/master/nailgun/nailgun/fixtures/openstack.json#L173-L189

3. and then upload fixture back to nailgun (or change them directly in DB)

4. add deployment order
Multinode
https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-web/blob/master/nailgun/nailgun/orchestrator/deployment_serializers.py#L122-L132
HA
https://github.com/stackforge/fuel-web/blob/master/nailgun/nailgun/orchestrator/deployment_serializers.py#L269-L300

5. fix puppet manifests for you role (or just use separate provisioning to
provision without deployment)

I'm not sure that UI will work correctly, but I think you will be able to
deploy env via CLI.
