You are actually right on that one. We should keep BC in the 5.6 release. That was the reason for the call to what other libs are used where no one stepped up for others and therefore there wasn't any BC expected.... :( @Côme, can we fix that in the 5.6 branch somehow? > >> Come has done a great job to clean up the LDAP code to start >> implementing long awaited features and I'm not really sure whether we >> should give that up for maintaining compatibility with some edge-case >> usages.

I'm not that deep into the C-business (yet) therefore I'll need a day or two to digest the patch. I'd just love to see the LDAP-extension move towards better implementation of such things as paginated and/or serversided sorted results. Thanks for your input and contribution!
