Ideas for next releases

Description

Here is a list of developments that could be good to implement. And before you ask I am willing to work on them :)

• Migrate to the Terraform Plugin Framework. Not critical but easier to do now than when the provider will get bigger.
• Move the go-freeipa dependency to upstream instead of your fork. I have not seen blocking issues using the upstream. Of course upstream will need to update the generated code and errors as it is based on freeipa-4.6 api.
• Implement datasources where it makes sense
• Implement import of resource in order to allow easy management of existing freeipa clusters with terraform.
• Add relevant resource type, like vault, external idp, idviews
• Fix some naming choices in resource names or

Open questions

Any issue I might have missed in the different points? go-freeipa dependency and plugin framework might be the trickiest as it depends on historical changes I might not be aware of.

Any thoughts on priority?

Which would be the best resource types to implement?

• to datasources

Hello!
We use a few ipa servers, like ipa_server = srv, server-1.com, server-2.com. They are replicas, and it works nicely if I configure them via Ansible.

However, in the module, I can only use one freeipa_host in provider as I see in examples...
Could you please add support for multiple ipa hosts?
