Feature request

Which Nextcloud Version are you currently using: 31.0.5

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I have to maintain Contacts org chart separately to the data available in OpenLDAP because there is no mapping for manager available.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to centrally manage user/contact Manager mappings in LDAP only and have it sync to NextCloud so that it shows in the Org chart correctly.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I could pull the LDAP user and manager data down to the NextCloud server and store in a file on disk, then call the occ command to automatically update the user manager field.

If possible, please provide an update on this feature request. Would be really nice to have this as a native integration.
