For Gitlab you can specify multiple LDAP servers with the EE if I am

We have Gitlab EE and we can use both of our FreeIPA servers.
The multiple LDAP
servers in GitLab are not meant as "fail-over".
There is an issue [1] for it, but it seems there is no priority for it.
In your case you get multiple LDAP tabs on the login page, right?
It's a workaround that I could try.
[1] https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/139
In Grafana for example, we simply write both LDAP servers separated
by a space.
We do the same in a similar fashion with phpIPAM for example. All in all, we haven't
found a case that would need the installation of an HAProxy in front of the FreeIPA
servers.
Let me then also mention dokuwiki, where you can list multiple LDAP
servers in the config. So, yes, there are systems with a solution.
