This adds a feature in the authentication provider for active directory to use a different user for the bind operation as the user which credentials are to be authenticated.
In some company AD servers it's not allowed for ordinary users to connect via LDAP. Microsoft recommends to use a dedicated machine to machine (M2M) user account for these operations.
