Better to do this in a slapd ACL and enforce from the server side, than to rely on correctness of multiple clients.

We don't use LDAP for passwords, and that wouldn't prevent SSH key logins either.

You could (or better should) easily extend this ACL-based approach to whole user entries. Use your imagination. Actually I'm doing this all the time.

Also we trust our client config just as much as our LDAP config.

I often have to deal with clients where I can't set a filter in client configuration at all. Usually some appliances are a nightmare to configure.
