LDAP delete "attribute;option"



What is the result of these two LDAP operations?

1. modify cn=foo: add attrvals  A = one,   B;x = two  and  C = three.
2. modify cn=foo: remove attrs  A;binary,  B          and  C;y.

As far as I can tell, the server can't delete B if it doesn' know option
";x", since rfc2251 "4.1.5. Attribute Description" says

   A server will treat an AttributeDescription with any options it does
   not implement as an unrecognized attribute type

On the other hand, A _is_ removed since ";binary" only affects what is
sent over protocol (rfc2251 "4.1.5.1. Binary Option").
