 * We are making great use of your plugin. Thank you!
 * There is a feature I would like to request; my PHP skills and understanding of
   LDAP are not so good. This request is in response to the discovery of a problem
   when using your plugin in conjunction with either the More Privacy Options plugin
   or the Network Privacy plugin (both exhibit the problem, but I’ll explain with
   the More Privacy Options plugin).
 * After several months of using the LDAP LPRM plugin with great results, I added
   the More Privacy Options plugin to my multi-site specifically to allow site admins
   control over who could access their site. Both plugins seemed to work fine together;
   existing users in WordPress who were not added to a specific site were restricted
   from accessing the site. However, I discovered (by accident) that if an LDAP 
   user who has never logged into the multi-site (i.e., they are a new user, not
   an existing user according to WordPress) logs into a particular site that is 
   set to restrict access only to specific users (of course, that user would not
   have been added to the site, because they are entirely new), the restrictions
   set by the More Privacy Plugin are ignored. The LDAP user’s account in WordPress
   is created and they are added as a user of the restricted site.
 * I don’t see a way around this using the More Privacy Options plugin. The user
   is successfully authenticating using LDAP and the account is created in WordPress.
   Because their first loggin is taking place at a restricted site, the restricted
   site is added to their list of associated sites. Now that they are a WordPress
   user (not just an LDAP user), they are prevented from accessing the next restricted
   site for which they have not been granted access (i.e., the More Privacy Options
   plugin is now doing its job), but they unfortunately have access to a restricted
   site that they should not be able to access.
 * So, because membership in an LDAP group could be used instead of the More Privacy
   Options plugin, would you be willing to add the ability to use an LDAP group 
   to restrict access to a site?
 * Thanks.
 * John
