Support for LDAP/OIDC Integration to Simplify Restricted Cluster Permissions

[miraccan00]

It would be extremely helpful if the tool could support LDAP or other OIDC-based authentication mechanisms in order to streamline permission management for restricted clusters.

Currently, granting limited or scoped access requires manual configuration, which can become complex and difficult to maintain. Native integration with LDAP/OIDC would allow organizations to leverage existing identity providers and group-based access controls, making it much easier to manage user permissions securely and consistently.

Requested enhancements:

Add support for LDAP and/or OIDC authentication.

Allow mapping of LDAP/OIDC groups to cluster roles or restricted permissions.

Provide documentation or examples for integrating common providers (e.g., Active Directory, Okta, Azure AD, Keycloak).

Optional: A configuration layer that allows admins to define access rules declaratively.

This feature would greatly improve ease of use and security for teams operating in regulated or multi-tenant environments.

Very cool idea. Not something we have the bandwidth to implement ourselves, but would be an interesting addition.
