Been seeing this for quite awhile now. I thought it must be a unfinished feature set or a misconfiguration of the ACL on my OpenLDAP server. Now I think not. I have had some luck editing and creating new (LDAP-based) contacts by either creating them locally in the contacts folder, then drag-n-drop to the LDAP server... or by using the phone list view which let's you edit the fields.
Soon I hope to roll my sleeves up and (help) fix/enhance the LDAP integration components. How about you?
