I've already sent the patch to the ML. I use the API doc string as a 
tooltip for the authentication indicator field in webui and now there is 
only "Authentication indicator whitelist" and I think that we might 
provide more information in webui. So there are two solutions I can 
write my own tooltip text or we can extend the API doc string for this 
new option. Actually, there is another one - leave it as it is. What do 
you think would be better?

I tried to apply your patches and the last patch (93) needs change in 
VERSION file. IPA_API_VERSION_MINOR is the same as in master. So it 
needs to be incremented.
