When I install debian-based workstations, I always setup an LDAP server to centralize the account management, and I think the possibility to setup automatically this feature on client machine directly in the installer would be very useful.

Yes, I know that 90% of users don't use LDAP-based authentication, but IMHO this can be a very very important feature for a quick setup of a large debian-based workstation network... As I said, other distributions do this and I think there is a valid motivation for it. How many possibilities I have to convince the d-i team to introduce LDAP autoconfiguration? :) Thanks, Fabio.
