LDAP UI Functionality changed between 5.x and 6.x?

I use LDAP integration module and it works well. My issue has to do with my recent endeavor in upgrading from Drupal 5.x to Drupal 6.x. Specifically, the "LDAP UI options" works slightly differently, and I am not sure where to go to fix it. I have multiple audiences for my site, and the majority use LDAP for authentication. But I do have users that do not authenticate via LDAP, so I have to keep up with those users and their passwords as well. Everything works fine except that the LDAP Intergration LDAP UI options for "Remove password change field" on the 5.x version of the module affects ONLY LDAP users, not ALL users. Now on Drupal 6, if I choose to hide the password change field on the LDAP users' edit tabs, it ALSO removes the "Request new password" link from the login block/page!

Since I have 2 very different sets of users, both in terms of rights and authentication, I really liked the fact that I could disable the password edit field for my LDAP users (it was too confusing for them) while still allowing my non-LDAP users the ability to request a new password. Am I missing something? Why was this changed? Is there a way for me to alter the module so that it works more like the v.5.x?
