--- Comment #8 from Howard Chu <[email protected]> ---
Supporting this will require extra care on the part of the sysadmins. In
particular, we currently send a list of the names of every CA cert that was
configured, to every client, if client cert authentication is configured.
It would probably be a bad idea to send the hundreds of CAs in the default
cert bundle in that case. It only ever makes sense for an LDAP server to
trust and advertise a very small number of CAs. In particular when client
certs are used for authentication, it doesn't make sense to trust certs
from anywhere other than the CA that's signing the client certs.

Given the small scope of trust, it also doesn't make sense to be picking up
trusted CA certs from large numbers of locations.
