[Samba] LDAP Account Manager 2.5.0 released

[rhubbell]

Just going to be direct, not to insult or disparage.
First thoughts were:
Cool an LDAP browser/interface.
Ugh, it's in PHP.
Hmm, it seems to be specific to a fixed set of schemas, seems like a limiting
feature.

What's the reason for limiting its use with certain schemas?
Will it work when pointed at any LDAP db?
Does it scale for 10.000, 50.0000, 250.000 entries and beyond?
Do you have data to support its scalability?
