It's used for authentication anyway, and it'd open the way to block users from editing,reading etc. certain namespaces or articles totally fine-grained... simply make a sub-element "userWriteBlock: cn=foobar,dc=en,dc=wikipedia,dc=org" to an article / NS entry you don't want a certain user to be able to edit. Files could also be stored in a LDAP daemon, though this DOES suck for anyone trying to edit the LDAP tree by hand.
