postfix virtual users in ldap, no advantage?

Implementing postfix virtual users using ldap --IMO-- has no advantage,
because some settings should be keept in postfix config file
(virtual_mailbox_base), while others can be put on ldap
(virtual_mailbox_maps), but still not in "standard" form (relative path
and "/" suffix for maildir).
While for some other IMAP/POP3 needs a absolute path of "homeDirectory",
this will make duplicate attributes in ldap and moving user home
directory is not as easy as just replacing value in homeDirectory attribute.
To be honest, this is not a big issue for me, because I only maintain
small list of users (<50), but I wonder how others whose maintains
thousands of users solve this problem?
