Do you mind posting the `eudc-ldap-no-wildcard-attributes' setting you
ended up with? The docstring for that variable doesn't mention
adjusting this as a preference, only LDAP failure workarounds. I would
like to update the docstring with an example, to make your use case more
discoverable.

OK, thanks for following up. My feeling is that someone using both
`eudc-query-form' and `eudc-expand-inline' would want the behaviour of
both functions to match with respect to wildcard addition. And
`eudc-ldap-no-wildcard-attributes' allows the user to customize the
behaviour to their preference/expectation (which you've done), so I
think this is fine as-is (except the docstring).
