Yes, numerous ;-)

There is Jonathon Reinhart's ADAM  (seemingly renamed adman) :

https://gitlab.com/JonathonReinhart/adman

Unfortunately there seems to be a problem with his gitlab page at the 
moment.

There is LAM: https://www.ldap-account-manager.org/lamcms/

You could script around ldb-tools or ldap-utils.

Or wait for Samba 4.12.0 when samba-tool will finally be able to add 
rfc2307 attributes to existing users & groups.

There are others as well.
