Webmin + LDAP allows for Multiple Users with same UID

It looks like there is a missing check on the LDAP Users and Groups module that when you add an LDAP User and assign it a UID that UID is validated against existing users UIDs. There is a similar check for the username.

We discovered this while manually migrating a couple of users from local account to LDAP accounts and ended up assigning UIDs that overlapped with existing LDAP users.

Ok, so do you want to prevent the creation of users whose UID clashes with another existing user?
