I'm guessing the project reserves the right to define new values in
that namespace, which could potentially collide with your locally
invented ones.

Instead of setting "idp.attribute.resolver.LDAP.entire.baseDN"
elsewhere (it's not the assignment above that's problematic), you can
call it anything you what that's unlikely to interfer with other
settings.
So "myBaseDN" is just as good a property name (or better) as
"edu.attribute.resolver.LDAP.entire.baseDN", IMO.
