I do not think this is something we want to have fixed FreeIPA API side, when
you set some field/attribute to None, it is just set to None, i.e. removed from
LDAP. No default value kicks in.

If you would that to work, we would first have to update ipa-sam plugin to
understand missing Fallback primary group as "use the default". If I read the
code right, it currently just fails the operation.

Sumit, do you think it would we feasible to change the ipa-sam operation this
way? I.e. when fallback primary group DN is not present, use the value
hardcoded in ipa-sam. It may have been thought about originally as
ipaNTFallbackPrimaruyGroup attributeType is a MAY and not a MUST on the
objectClass.
