We attempted to do something in this area (sort of AD personality) a few years ago, but it just doesn't work. What we did instead is to allow creating cross realm trusts between a FreeIPA domain and an AD domain. Unfortunately Samba 4 AD still does not support forest trusts so we are limited to interoperate only with Windows AD for now. Once Samba 4 AD will support forest trusts then you'll be able to use FreeIPA for your linux/unix machines and Samba 4 for your Windows machines.
