databases accessed via LDAP can be and are used as a user data store
and a policy data store for authentication and authorization purposes
cf. OpenSSO (AccessManager), and competing products like CA SiteMinder.

Hello,
All browser offer to remember userid/password pairs (and more) and
it seems to
me this would fall, somewhat obviously, into a case of possible use
of ldap,
since it does authentication. Obviously the web sites may use ldap
for their
own purposes, but I'm thinking of ldap for the site users.
However, my searching efforts over the web have found nothing at all
on
this...?
Is this possible?
Is it already being done and I just don't recognize it?
Is it obviously foolish?
