FWIW, I agree with this approach.

Subject:  subentry visibility



At the LDAPext there was a brief discussion regarding subentry
visibility and the affect of a subentry visibility control.  I
made the following suggestion as to the visibility of subentries:

In absence of the subentry visibility control, subentries are
not visible UNLESS the target/base of the operation is a subentry.

In presence of the subentry visibility control, ONLY subentries
are visible when TRUE and ONLY entries are visible when FALSE.
That is, in presence of the visibility control, the semantics
are in accordance with the X.500 common argument subentry
visibility control.
