OK; right now, I don't consider taking a general software and making it
work for your single table hack only anything any close to "get better".

Feel free to make it work like that and to maintain your personal copy

To me, at least, it looks like a reasonable starting point :).

Unfortunately, I don't have time right now to see if and how this
particular case could be generalized to something that complies to the
data model of back-sql.  It is not yet clear to me why you need to turn
ldap_entries into a view that contains also the data and not only the
connectivity info.
