i'm guessing the answer is no, but the documentation is not explicit.

forum_access uses ACL (not roles) to set permissions (including view) for forums.
so you can have users with the same roles who should see different sets of forums.

forum_access_db_rewrite_sql doesn't rewrite taxonomy, but rather looks at ACL tables.

i'm not clear enough on the inner workings to answer this myself...any information would be appreciated! thanks!

I've remarked this topic as fixed because it dropped off the radar and i was tearing my hear off until i found this, so this might help somebody in the next couple of weeks :-)
anyway, is there any possible workaround? and are other content access modules safe?

i have a fix for this in the works that patches forum module to keep a cache key per role-combo, but it needs quite a bit of work, as it's a total rewrite of forum caching.

it wouldn't be terribly hard to extend the existing forum caching to do it by role-combo, similar to how node caching does it.

search caching needs a similar fix.
