You're not a developer and clearly unable to write code that behaves as you suggest.

Your opinion is worthless noise.

Your examples are irrelevant and not applicable.

But hey moron, that didn't work with threaded programs.

If you were a developer you might be aware of this
fact. But you're not, and you have no valid basis for any opinion

You're clearly not qualified to do the work yourself.

You aren't by any chance the long-lost separated at birth twin of Theo de
Raadt? You seem to share the great skill of turning what should be a technical
debate into a circus of baseless insults, groundless accusations, and ad
hominem attacks.

A technical debate can only productively occur between parties that both understand the issues at hand. You clearly don't, and had no business joining the debate.

If you had done your homework (it's not hard, everything is on www.openldap.org), read up on everything that had been considered and tried before, and understood anything about writing code, you might have had something useful to contribute. The fact (not opinion) is you didn't, and you don't. Irresponsible posts like yours deserve flames, not respect.
