In my point of view, if the reason is only for resolve configuration change, it's a workaround and not a solution. look samba and smb.conf file management. I can read and write this file when smb deamon run, why slapd cannot made same think ?

But my critism on the whole thing is, that -it seems- the new

My criticism is not about missing documentation. I think there is enough
of that, and what missing could be added.
My criticism, if slapd.conf will be removed, is about the added complexity that will be imposed forcing the use of "cn=config" on all the people that don't need the benefits it gives.
I already stated the reasons for which I strongly prefer simple text configuration files for service deamons, so I won't repeat it here.
