I interpreted Dave's request the opposite way: gnucash is an LDAP
client, just like Evolution, and they both work with the enterprise
LDAP server.  Request info, update info, etc.

That was what I was talking about when I mentioned using Evolution's
backend anyway.  I sort of thought it used LDAP all the time.
