Hi
I'm not exactly sure when it was removed, but in IPA version 4.10.1, the "description" option in user_mod api call was still available. Its removal has caused a lot of issues for us. :( Is there any specific reason why it was removed? Is there any chance it could be reinstated?

I don't believe description was ever officially supported. I wonder if someone made custom changes to the plugin which got overwritten on upgrade.
The attribute is available but there is no option for it.
e.g this works:
ipa user-mod someuser --setattr description=foo
