I would prefer not to add LDAP password for the first bind user to the ldap.toml file. It would be nice to be able to use environment variables like the main Grafana config file does. I couldn't find in the documentation that ldap.toml supports this. Does it? Can it be added if it doesn't?

no, the ldap config does not support this, will likely not be added.

The initial ldap bind password does not need to be user with many ldap permissions, only read/search permissions.

Is there any alternative for securing it ?

I'd prefer LDAP to be configured via environment variables.
