When looking at the implementation of
WINBINDD_SHOW_SEQUENCE inside the winbind parent, I get the
impression that it walks all domains and explicitly asks the
children. I would have to look, but I would bet a lot that
that code is a lot older than 12 months. Can you point me at
the piece of the code that reports this from the parent
only?

You removed that functionality as part of a checkin doing
something completely similar, at least from the checkin
message. It is my fault to not having watched close enough,
but I think it is not unreasonable to ask you to fix a
regression you introduced.
