LDAPUserManager

[Niklas Gustavsson]

Is anyone currently using the LDAPUserManager? I'm looking into doing a 
complete rewrite if it that would do a regular LDAP bind to authenticate 
the user and then look up LDAP attributes. This would different from 
today when a full Java User object is stored in the LDAP directory. Do 
this rewrite would enable us to work with any LDAP directory, e.g. 
Active Directory.

Using bind is the same method as used by Acegi Security. I'm also 
considering providing an adapter to Acegi and completely remove our LDAP 
UM, instead pointing at the Acegi one.
