No, the OpenLDAP backend was a dead end development wise for the AD DC. We couldn't make it work fully, and it won't be revived because it is (essentially) incompatible with DRS replication and needs the AD schema anyway. Because we are tied to AD schema and behaviour, using a different LDAP server simply doesn't bring us any significant gains.
