In this case, I would be using the DBIC authentication store module (not the LDAP one), with the self_check Credential option + the auto_create_user option, and writing a check_password method (yourself) which looked up the user in LDAP and did the auth there…

If you want roles and other foreign keys etc - then you want the user row from DBIC to be master, and authentication to just be delegated down to that row instance..
