Additionally if a local configuration differs from a RFC you might 
consider this to be bad practice.

But thinking this to the end a server MAY then apply another matching 
rule to a given attribute type but keep the attribute type description 
as defined in the RFC. That's even worse because the server behaves 
differently but the client won't be able to find out. Very bad!
