angela commented on OAK-7428:
-----------------------------

[~baedke], wouldn't it make sense to have the new configuration options you 
added in the documentation separated for users and groups? Looking that list of 
options it strikes me that most are separated by user and group configuration 
but not the 2 options you added.

And btw: why two new configuration parameters?... reading the description I 
feel that the 'custom attributes' don't belong to this issue...

> The LdapIdentityProvider always uses the value of an authorizables DN to 
> create external ids. But DNs may change over time, while the external id of 
> an authorizable have to be stable because the property rep:externalID is 
> protected.
> Therefore we need to add the option to use the value of a configurable LDAP 
> attribute to create external ids from it.
