I would note that the purpose of olcAuthzRegexp is to locate the right
identity (entry), not just do username rewriting. If that entry belongs
to a database with configured ACLs, those apply to give the admin a
chance to control this part of the authentication+authorization process.

If you want to improve the existing documentation, please help review
ITS#9256 which, sadly, has been on hold for a while. And maybe propose
tweaks/additions to the admin guide, that would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
