If you have a complete control over an application configuration,
anyway you can do anything you want, even use/etc/passwd file instead
of LDAP :)

If you consider however that a bind limitation based on the ACIs could
be a useful feature you can request this feature at the bugzilla of
Fedora Directory Server (bugzilla.redhat.com). I don't know whether
this feature exists in OpenLDAP or Active Directory...
