OpenSMTP, when using a virtual user table mapping will fork to that user to issue the mda (opensmtp) -> lda (dovecot). This works quite well. I did try to do what you did with LTMP, but that just wasted time. In the end, I was happy how opensmtp handled the lda connection, thus didn't mind deviating from the recommended dovecot setting.
