The ldapdelete command does not have a sizelimit option. If I have a lot of
entries in my LDAP server and issue an ldapdelete command, the command fails
saying that there are too many entries (default seems to be 500). It would be
useful to have a -z <sizelimit> option for ldapdelete, as for ldapsearch, so
that I can use ldapdelete to delete sets of entries at a time.
