From UI point of view, I suggest to change
'Name of the multivalued attribute which holds the CNs of consumer_shortNamePlural members, for example: memberUid'
to
'Name of the multivalued attribute which holds the CNs or DNs of consumer_shortNamePlural members, for example: memberUid or uniqueMember'
and add choice selector 'Search for DN, then for CN (default) / Search for DN only / Search for CN only'
In many LDAP setups there could be many entries with the same CN like 'Matt', 'Andrew' or even 'New user'. On the other hand, DN is always unique.
