if you really want you can do that. But to me this looks too complex 
to do for what it's worth. Leaving "ldap timeout" as deprecated and 
use it for both new ldap timeout parameters - but what should be done 
if the new parameters are also set? Is the "ldap timeout" overwriting 
the "ldap operation/connection timeout" timeout or vice versa? There 
are so many changes in smb.conf configuration in minor releases that 
require smb.conf adjustment. Compared to other changes this is really 
a small change and just fine for a 3.2 release I think.

Cheers
