It’s probably better to be vague and meaningless than wrong. Someone will think of a more accurate descriptor, but in the meantime it’s better not to have an inaccurate one.

Sure it should. Tons of ports have LDAP support. This feels a bit like pedantry, as “Kerberos support” and “Gopher protocol support” and “Unicode support” are no more or less useful, though people who need them will know to enable them.
