We have an interest in this as well.  We have hosted our enterprise SVN 
repositories via Apcha and LDAP.  With recent requests for per-directory 
authorization we are left  with figuring out a way to manage these 
permissions.  We do not want to require the users recreate the existing 
LDAP groups in their authorization files.  Are there any current plans to 
support LDAP in the authorization file?

I know multiple people have asked for it, but I'm not aware of any
developer actually working on it at the moment.
