Yes, we have the following setup:

The functional account which makes the bind:
AuthLDAPBindDN "CN=ldapagent,OU=Benutzer,OU=_***,DC=***,DC=***,DC=***"
AuthLDAPBindPassword ********

And we have the server URL with filter:
AuthLDAPURL 
"ldap://ldap-proxy.***.de:389/DC=***,DC=***,DC=***?sAMAccountName?sub?(objectClass=user)"

Actually one would only need 2 additional fields for the functional 
account/password in the LDAP Auth setup, but we do not have the resources right 
now for patching Geoserver. I would fin both LDAP Auth mechanisms nice being 
supported in the future,

Well, then a change to the code is needed to realize your desidered behaviour. 
I think you would need to specify:
 - the fixed account credentials used to bind
 - the filter to use for authentication (I think we could reuse the "filter 
used to lookup user" that is present on 2.4); do you have an example of filter 
that you use for authentication on the ldap proxy?

It's not trivial, but not that hard to implement.
If you wish to add have it implemented I think you have some options:
 - try to create a patch yourself and issue a pull request
 - sponsor someone to implement it for you
