maybe also the possibility to extend the web UI with a new page per plugin but that would involve adding some way to add new APIs etc

@nitnelave commented on GitHub (Oct 26, 2023):

I think making the web UI extensible is going to be another whole can of
worms that I don't want to get into. I was more thinking of plugins as
unintrusive pieces of logic that hook into the lower-level calls
("create_user", "add_user_to_group" and so on) and return a modified
request, potentially issuing more requests or adding some logging and so on.

And ideally, with the right setup, you can have the plugins be written in
any language that compiles to WASM. A Lua or go plugin could be fairly
simple to write for most sysadmins, to support their
{auto-incrementing/unique/CRC-checked} custom attribute.

FYI, I'm exploring what a plugin API would look like in https://github.com/nitnelave/lldap_plugin_poc, feel free to leave some comments in issues/discussions there, or just on discord in the #development channel.
