I don't quite understand the proxy_maybe option :

proxy_maybe can be used to implement "automatic proxying". If the proxy
destination matches the current connection, the user gets logged in normally
instead of being proxied. If the same happens with proxy, the login fails with
"Proxying loops" error. This feature exists only in v1.1+.


This was my feature request. Normally proxying is expecting to get a result and proxy to that server. In the case that the result might actually be "we are here already" then you need to make your query return null if you are already on the correct server to disable the proxying. This is simple with an sql db, but less easy with ldap. proxy_maybe automatically checks the result of the proxy lookup and if you are already on the correct server it doesn't proxy anything ('cause you are already there)
