well, technically the web admin gui is entirly based on simple php. There are 
no real OpenPKG dependencies.

I cannot confirm this. By default the accounts are stored under the domain. 
e.g.

Nodes:
dn: cn=external,dc=kepler,dc=hq,dc=erfrakon,dc=de
dn: cn=groups,dc=kepler,dc=hq,dc=erfrakon,dc=de
dn: cn=groups,dc=kepler,dc=hq,dc=erfrakon,dc=de

Entry:
dn: cn=Martin Konold,dc=kepler,dc=hq,dc=erfrakon,dc=de

KAddressbook easily handles these and in addition the Kolab 2 LDAP setup 
explicitly allows for subtree search.

I highly recommend to have a look at
