Each SASL negotiation is, generally, independent of other SASL
negotiations.  If there were dependencies between multiple
negotiations of a particular mechanism, the mechanism technical
specification should detail how applications are to deal with
them.  LDAP should not require any special handling.  And if
an LDAP client had used such a mechanism, it would have the
option of using another mechanism.
