If the LDAP client got hacked the content of the control value cannot be trusted. So security considerations similar like with proxy authz apply. Anyway I'd like to have it available also in set-based ACLs. Furthermore I'd like to have normal peer address available in set-based ACLs e.g. to grant auth access to userPassword only to bind requests coming from a certain IP address stored in the attribute of a user's entry (e.g. 'aeRemoteHost' in Æ-DIR [1] and [2]).
