Originally when I implemented LDAP support I didn't even know there 
existed such things as authentication binds. And later I just haven't 
cared myself enough about that issue, I don't need it and there are 
more important things for me to do. The annoying thing with it is that 
it'd have to be implemented asynchronously, which may not be simple.
