Larry McCay commented on KNOX-694:
----------------------------------

This seems complex but very flexible/powerful.
Complex problems require complex solutions sometimes - when possible at all.
This looks great.

I imagine that order of the config is important - if so, make sure that it is 
clear in the docs.

> In very complex organizations the current configuration supported by 
> KnoxLdapRealm my not be sufficient.  Ideally it would be possible to:
> 1. Configure the LDAP search filter directly
> 2. Configure the LDAP search scope
> 3. Have portions of the search base and filter be derived from the input 
> principal.
> To clarify this, I'm thinking of provider configurations like these
> {code}
> <param name="main.ldapRealm.principalRegex" value="(.*?)\\(.*)"/>
> <param name="main.ldapRealm.userDnTemplate"
