Yes, I agree that each archetype/class should have its own very specific utility. And the fact that each archetype has its own abilities, rather than get diluted with additional abilities from their secondary, leads me to believe that each archetype will be special enough to have their own identity. Especially if Intrepid does indeed balance party composition for 1 of each archetype.
As for cross-class roles, augments should in theory cover that. Your healer wears heavy armor that gives him a ton of mana? Let him get tank as a secondary, add some threat generation on his heals and now you have yourself a healer that tanks. Your bard has some OE gear? Give him some fighter augments and how he's the main dps instead of support. So on and so on.
