We should specifically have a tool for this instead of having people 
invoking perl_ldap- said tool also gives us easier validation and 
sanity checking.  I'd started one in '06 but had to retire it at 
the time due to ldaps not being supported by the python ldap bindings 
I was using- afaik that issue bindings wise is now long since gone.

Robin, any remenant of that survive?  Else a new one could be wrote I 
suppose.
