It would be interesting to know what some X.500 vendors currently do. This seems to beg for some kind of 'ambiguousStructuralRule' error.

For exampe:
NameForm1 mandatory cn, optional ou, namedObjectClass orgPerson
NameForm2 mandatory cn, optional sn, namedObjectClass orgPerson
StructureRule5
NameForm nameForm1
SuperiorRule StructureRule4
StructureRule6
NameForm nameForm2
SuperiorRule StructureRule4
StructureRule7
NameForm nameform2
SuperiorRule Structurerule6
Attempting to add a orgPerson object with the rdn of "cn=ldapuser" to a parent object that has a governingStructureRule
of StructureRule4.
What dITStructureRule is set for the governingStructureRule or should this error?
I have looked through X.500 and the current model draft, I have not found the answer yet.
