pplolicy lockout grace time?



Hello

We ran into the following problem: someone changes its password, but
has a few devices with the old password recorderd. Before the user
has time to update stored passwords, an buggy-client hammers servers
with requests using the old password, and get the account locked by 
slapo-ppolicy.

Perhaps there could be a setting in pwdPolicy or in slapd.conf 
so that there is a grace time after a password reset? For instance, 
the admin could configure that slapo-ppolicy should not lock a user
if password has been changed less than X seconds ago.

Opinions?
