Re: escapement of single quote in dstring

["Jim Sermersheim" <JIMSE@novell.com>]

I should have looked there. I agree with the escaping mechanism (\xx),
but I still think it cannot be applied to dstring unless we are careful
to not use dstring in syntaxes like postalAddress. We should either 
- define a new, non-escaped dstring
- leave dstring as UTF8 and create an edstring (escaped dstring)
- leave dstring as UTF8 and apply the escapment rules to qdstring

In general, I believe that escaping of arbitrary strings should
be consistent consistent with RFC 2252, 4.3.  This is the
approach I've used for qdstring in draft-ietf-ldapbis-models.
