We have an LDAPUserSource for LoginManager already in production here. 
It needs a little bit of cleanup and reorganization, some documentation,
and we have to fix a small bug in the ZLDAPConnection product, but then
we expect to release it.  Since it's a LoginManger UserSource, it will
get you propertysheet support and PTK-compatability.
