I don't understand your comment.
* Jaywalking makes.. what harder?
* In the UK, roundabouts are marked with areas for pedestrians to cross but they are not crossings? What are they, then?
* You don't have to wait
* But also you can't expect traffic to stop for you
* What do you do if it does not become clear?
> Jaywalking makes.. what harder?
Crossing the road without a crossing or light or whatever explicitly telling you that you can do it.

They are indented areas where the road (and often the centre barrier just before the roundabout) is marked for pedestrians but traffic is not obligated to stop. You cross the road when it is safe
> What do you do if it does not become clear?
If it was such total gridlock you can just cross in between traffic that is not moving?
