Ari Maniatis commented on DIRSTUDIO-626:
----------------------------------------
Unfortunately the chance of me having the time to work on this is close to
zero. I'm not even finding enough time to work on the Apache projects I'm
already involved with. And my knowledge of LDAP is only at the 'enough to be
dangerous' level.
Your caveats are all good and wise, but for people who have smaller directories
this feature would be extremely useful without all the additional complexity of
having to thread or page the extra lookups.
Anyhow, I think this would be an extremely useful feature and the last thing
holding us to the awful phpldapadmin. I'm biased but I think lots of other
people would find this feature useful. I boldly set a fix version as 2.0 :-)

> Key: DIRSTUDIO-626
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-626
> Project: Directory Studio
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: studio-ldapbrowser
> Affects Versions: 1.5.2
> Reporter: Ari Maniatis
> Fix For: 2.0.0
>
>
> Value editors can already be extended as per
> http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DIRxSTUDIO/Value+Editor+Extension+Point
> Although there is an old old task DIRSTUDIO-22 for improving usability with
> common entities (such as groupOfNames), a simpler first step improvement
> would be to create an editor for the common "member" attribute. It should be
> capable of resolving the DN value to the CN of the related record. A brief
> discussion was had here: http://markmail.org/message/vi3uyjkennzdu727
> This improvement would make a huge difference to the ease of managing LDAP
> directories which use groupOfNames extensively.
