LDAP subentry alignment with X.500 subentry
I believe 'LDAPsubentry' should be replaced with with 'subentry' and
defined such that it closely modelled after X.500.
1) subentries should have a subtree specifier such that they are more
useful for specification of ACI subentries.
2) subentries should be visible based upon presence of a subentries control,
not a filter components. For example:
(|(&(objectclass=LDAPsubentry)(!(cn=*))(objectclass=*))
Should the subentry be visible or not? There are reasonable arguments
for both yes and no.
I primarily make these suggestions because I believe these changes would
make subentries within LDAP more usable, in particular, when used in
support of the access control model.
