It's worth noting that this new behavior breaks compatibility with the default
SLES LDAP settings. Yes, it's possible to setup TLS on SLES, but it's not
enabled by default on installation. There are many network environments where
LDAP does not use (and does not need) TLS. Forcing it on users ensures that
opensuse 12.2 will not be used in those environments.
Most other distributions have gone in the same direction, making TLS the
default (and practically mandatory) in the latest releases. If opensuse were to
retain the old behavior of allowing TLS to be disabled on the client, then it
would be one of the only distros to offer that option, which would be a
positive difference.
