Feature #143: Change Self Service Password to use LDAP exop (so it can be used 
with Check Password)

Target version: self-service-password-0.3


In #127 ("Store hashed passwords") there was some discussion of using LDAP exop 
to perform the password change function in Self Service Password.  But this was 
rejected in favor of just providing a SSHA option to create hashed passwords.

But if someone is trying to use Self Service Password in conjunction with the 
Check Password tool - as I am - then SSHA isn't an option (since Check Password 
will likely reject the hashed password).

However, leaving Self Service Password set to use clear text passwords isn't a 
viable option either, since that will cause the password to get stored in clear 
text in the LDAP server.

Is there any way to enhance Self Service Password to use LDAP exop to set the 
password so that it would be possible to use all of these features together?

I know that #127 mentioned that PHP-LDAP did not support exop.  Is there any 
other library out there that does?  (A quick google turned up 2 possible 
solutions - one is calling a Perl module from PHP, and the other is a patch to 
PHP - but I'm not sure if either of them is easy to integrate with Self Service 
Password.)

It would be really great if there was *some* solution to this, though, else I 
won't be able to use the Self Service Password GUI - which would be a shame 
since it provides most of the functionality I need.
