I would say that the 'old' behaviour would be preferable if somoene choses to have an unconfigured slapd: Instead of failing to start the service, an empty slapd that is live and can be configured from the root account would be a bit more user-friendly. This seems to be how slapd was packaged in Ubuntu before, until the addition of an automatically populated tree recently.
