The haglofs' like this one list a 'rollaway hood'. The arcteryx's w fixed hoods don't, but they look almost the same. Could you 'roll it away' just like the spitz or is there some difference?

I've had this jacket since 2004 and when I'm skiing in it I just roll the hood away and cinch the draw cords around the hood to create a nice seal around my neck to keep the warmth in and the snow out - so yes you can is I think the answer to your question. (However when I'm hiking in the jacket I just let the hood sit flat as I don't need such a good seal.)

Ive had this jacket for quite some time and i just tried to roll it up to see how it works and its kind of uncomfortable. but, it is possible to roll it up and kind of tuck in into the jacket, but comfort-wise, i wouldn't recommend it.
