The passwd backend is a separate issue from the idmap backend. Of you will never need more than just a PDC, then there is no compelling reason to store idmap backend in an ldap database.
On the other hand, if you do need more than a single Samba PDC (ie: PDC and one or more BDCs) and you need consistant UID/GIDs across the whole network, then an idmap backend in ldap is a must.
Domain member server would need consistent SID<->uid mapping as well.
But remember that on a Samba PDC, winbindd is only useful mapping users/groups from trusted domains (not its own).
