Ok, I did not mention automounter maps at this point, I only discussed the very first step - how to bind automounter to our DS.
And there, as I believe, should be wide consensus that the approach described above is the best (I even believe that anonymous binds to the 
DS should be forbidden by default - the same way AD does).

By having it a part of the /ipa-client-install/ procedure we would sort out many questions about not-working automounter (see the recent 
discussion on this list) so admins can directly concentrate on the automounter maps.

Will I get any attention if I submit a RFE into the RedHat bugzilla? I can try to code something myself but I am not too god in python :-( .

Thanks,
Ondrej
