Well, it's one bad hack vs another. What actually would make sense to me
is to cover all of the non-DB ACLs under the frontendDB, since those
objects (rootDSE, schema subentry) are actually implemented in the slapd
frontend. And it doesn't seem important to have rootdn access to these
things anyway. You may as well just add explicit ACLs to give read
access to the IDs that need access.
