I see two general approaches. One is setting the `bzr whoami`
information once from LDAP data, rerunning when that changes. The other
would be querying LDAP every time this information is required.

Approach one is easy, approach two is a lot more involved (and more
fragile/slower). 

Could you elaborate some more what your desired effect is?
