I don't think that the C module should do high-level operations like
this. I can imagine that it's worth to write a Python class for it -
contributions and detailed suggestions welcome. But let's stick to
things found in OpenLDAP 2.0's ldap.h first.

OpenLDAP 2 has support for LDAP via SSL (URL scheme ldaps:// -> port
636) and LDAP with STARTTLS.

OpenLDAP supports SASL (not only Kerberos) if build with the Cyrus
SASL lib.
