OpenLDAP 2.4 sets the variable "searchFilter" before doing any rewriting
within the search operation.  However I see an issue there: the session is
defined as connection-wise, but there might be concurrent search
operations within a connection, so it seems that to exploit this feature
we need a more granular definition of "session".  This is harmless if your
clients perform one session at a time.
