Wonderful, thank you! I should have read better the docs.
Yes you remember correctly Dmitry, I am familiar with creating a custom
module now :)

Thanks for the trick with Firebug Marek. It will be useful in the future :)
Actually I tried that trick, on the "account" interface, but the "account"
interface does not use a rest api, correct? For example I don't want the
user to update its password / firstName / lastName (because those fields
come from LDAP) and I wanted to double-check if commenting / disabling
those fields on custom ftl templates is enough or do I need to disable /
comment something on the backend as well? On realm settings -> login. There
is only the option "edit username", but no option for "edit firstName /
edit lastName / edit password"....
