Changelog draft ...
I was thinking that should 'changeLogEntry' object class be modified to
include an extra optional attribute 'unchangedAttributes'.
This attribute would store values for certain specific attributes
even if they
have not been modified. The format would be LDIF.
This attribute would be present (if supported) in all types of changelog
entries
except 'changeType: add'. One should be able to configure
these attributes in the
LDAP server.
IMO, this would help changelog clients to identify whether they
need to
process a changelog or not e.g. based on the 'objectClass' attribute
if it is present in the 'unchangedAttributes'. The other
use could be to
map a changelog entry to an entry in other type of directory.
E.g. if
client directory uses 'uid' to identify directory entries and
'uid' is not
there in the DNs but is present in 'unchangedAttributes'.
