I read the discussion for few messages, i am not an apache developper, so i will speak as a user. IMHO, Splitting into two modules will make auth more complex. actually, it's not really easy to setup, and the documentation is not always up to date.

The only reason we split was because their wasn't a lot of shared code between the other auth modules. I think mod_auth_ldap has a lot of shared code in its authn/authz split.
All (or most) of the shared code is in mod_ldap already. It should be relatively easy to split mod_auth_ldap into mod_authn_ldap and mod_authz_ldap.
Why would we want to split the module into two pieces? What benefit to users does it provide and do those benefits (whatever they are) outweigh the additional complexity of knowing when/whether you need to load each piece?
