+Key
+ r required feature
+ n nice-to-have
+ ? undecided whether this is a good idea or not
+
+Missing features:
+n U/I for configuration.
+
+Loose ends:
+n Resolve any remaining code that is marked with XXX.
+n Put some thought into cases we do not handle (SASL, no DN, no passwd) and
+ make sure we do the right thing in terms of errors, letting server's
+ standard mechanism handle the bind, etc.
+? Protect against server connecting back to itself recursively.
+
+Testing:
+r Basic tests (all platforms: NT,Sol,IRIX,AIX,HP/UX,OSF/1).
+r Controls (both coming (e.g., ?) and going (e.g., password policy).
+r SSL connections to remote servers.
+r LDAPv2/v3 compatiblity
+r Stress tests.
