People who authenticate only via ldap --- for whom pam_unix.so doesn't
work --- cannot log in, because username and password are not know to
pam_unix.so only to either pam_ldap.so or pam_sssd.so.  I imagine
other authentication mechanisms will also fail.

What's more if there's any other policy set in common-account or
common-session, it's not obeyed (e.g., time-of-use or group membership
restrictions)
