would be great if it could be finalized and be part of 4.5.0.
It already has a working patch (thanks, Andrew) attached, but needs some
more attention. If this gets into 4.5.0, a 2012 DC is able to join a
Samba AD and does not break the replication any more.

I already prepared a documentation about joining 2012. It's not straight
forward and you have to pay attention to some things. However it's
working with a few additional steps. I spend some nights working on
figuring everything out, did a lot of testing and providing logs to
Andrew, etc.

If the patch could be finalized and get into 4.5.0, it would be great. I
have a prepared test environment for that scenario here and can test
patches in the short term.
