The development of samba 4 took a long time and many things had to be 
done. And a higher focus was put on the backend and that it is 
manageable with the tools from windows. samba-tool already bring a lot 
of features. But there are also many things that are currently not 
implemented.


Just a suggestion as workaround:
Setup a VM or on an unused old PC an WinXP/7, install the management 
tools there and connect to the machine via RDP, if you must use ADUC, etc.
