I guess a similar fix is required elsewhere, whenever the identity of an 
operation is changed.  For instance, in ACIs, I need to set the identity 
that climbs the tree to the rootdn to avoid chicken and egg issues 
during access checking, and I only set op->o_ndn; something similar 
occurs in other pieces of code where internal operations must be 
performed wth a different identity.  Does o_dn and o_authz need to be 
consistently set in all these cases?
