Attribute value rewriting

[Quanah Gibson-Mount <quanah@stanford.edu>]

So I have an interesting issue, and I'm wondering if there's an easy 
solution (although I'm guessing it would take slapo-rwm reworking).

Basically, email id's can come in the form of

quanah@stanford.edu,
q.u.a.n.a.h@stanford.edu
q-u.a-n-a.h@stanford.edu
qua.na-h@stanford.edu

(basically, any combination of periods and hyphens).  My own data is:

lsearch uid=quanah suseassunetid
dn: uid=quanah,cn=accounts,dc=stanford,dc=edu
suSeasSunetID: qgibsonmount
suSeasSunetID: quanah
suSeasSunetID: quanahgibsonmount

which means that any form of quanah@stanford.edu, 
qgibsonmount@stanford.edu, and quanahgibsonmount@stanford.edu are 
deliverable.

In our directory, we store what we consider the normalized form (all 
periods and hyphens stripped out).  What I'd like is a way to make sure 
that any incoming filter request for the attribute (suseassunetid) strips 
the value(s) of periods and hyphens before the query is evaluated.
