Caveats

• This dump the entire Google directory (users/groups) into memory, so it would take long time to start
• memberOf on user is not implemented
• Binds is not implemented. Any bind on the base DN would return success
• SASL is not implemented in the upstream library. Don't send SASL request to this server!
• This is NOT a drop in replacement for Secure LDAP service
