I don't like this way. I know it should be easier for
installing/documenting but you have less choices in usage. To be honest
I don't like LDAP+krb builtin into samba binary with several limitations.
As I wrote I understand it's easier way but from my point of view it
is the worse one. Please don't include bind into samba. You just waste
time with it. I didn't follow the discussion about internal DNS in
samba but it also needs a lot of resources which are missing somewhere
else.

New admins will have some troubles but they'll learn new things
and also troubleshooting.

Best regards,

Luf
