Yes, of course. Release early and often ;-)

Of course not. At some point we might even consider a separate group 
membership in order to be able to write to the global addressbook.

But I can imagine that we will in the future have "per domain" LDAP 
addressbooks. The users then can decide which addressbooks to subscribe. In 
order to make this easy a hierarchical structure is useful.

Yes.

In order to keep things simple a domain-maintainer may only add aliases which 
are pointing at domains he is responsible for. Please note that I explicitly 
allowed a maintainer to be responsible for multiple domains. This is best 
handled with LDAP groups.
