This is unlikely to work, because the LDAP extension relies on successful
authentication by the user who logs in to the LDAP tree in order to
retrieve the LDAP objects.  If you're using OpenID, or any other SSO
platform, you're unlikely to have that user's password in order to try the
authentication, and the LDAP extension will just silently fail.  CAS can
potentially work around this by using the ClearPass feature to provide the
user's password back to Guacamole, but that feature is only implemented in
the CAS Authentication Extension, and I'm unsure if either OpenID or any
other SSO platform supports that.

If you're going to use OpenID you'd likely be better off storing
configurations for connections in the JDBC module.
