Why is LDAP authentication on by default?

I would have assumed it to be off by default since the default  
authentication mechanism is to use xwiki's DB. I know the new LDAP  
impl will try XWiki's DB if it can't log on LDAP but that's not a good  
thing to do by default since everyone will incur some overhead and the  
fact that LDAP is on by default is misleading in this case.

Note: I may have missed something since I've been off for 2 days and  
only unpiling my emails now ;)

Thanks
