That would effectively mean that system-config-users contains an abstraction, which in one of the instances calls the libuser abstraction. It would seem more natural to write a libuser module instead of system-config-users- specific code—or, by far the best if possible, just use (or perhaps improve) libuser’s existing LDAP support.
Longer-term, there is supposed to be a sssd-centric user management API, which would also replace/be called by libuser. I’m not sure what is the implementation status of this effort.
