Yikes, I read the section heading and skipped right to the last sentence.  My bad.  I was thinking about something similar today.  How does a client discover which attribute types are supported by the SSS control?  An attribute at the root DSE (call it supportedSortIndex) could hold the information (list of attribute types) .  Is this too limited?
