DirectoryBrowser.app ?

I'm thinking  that LDAP  is only one  protocol to  access directories.
There are  other: ph, x500,  etc, and perhaps  one day you'll  want to
subclass and  allow your application to access  these directories too.
Think also  about reading directory  and directory entry  files (LDIF,
vCard,  AddressBook, PalmDesktop  TAB&RETURN  formated address  books,
etc).

So you could easily expand your horizons beyond LDAP...

Do not adjust your mind, there is a fault in reality.
