Re: controlling visability of subentries

Okay - there seems to be concensus on the matter...

Now - should I specify a new control, or use one someone else already
has defined?  Suggestions appreciated.

Yes, a control is definitely needed.  I wasn't looking
forwards to parsing arbitrary filters correctly.  Also, since
ldapSubEntries aren't actually in our object databases, but
are metadata, using a control is a much easier way to figure
this out.
