[ldapext] About draft-zeilenga-ldap-txn-10



Hi Kurt,

I was reviewing the LDAP transaction I-D and have the following questions and comments.

- End Transaction Request and Response.
Says:  The  responseValue when present contains a BER-encoded MessageID.

What  does this MessageID correspond to ?

I have a customer interested in the LDAP Transaction draft, but would prefer for auditing purpose and for a better clarity of the code to separate the end transaction into 2 requests: one Commit Transaction and one Abort Transaction.
By having 2 separate extended operations, it is easier to distinguished from Logs or traces when a transaction has been committed vs aborted.
Also on the client application point of view, it is cleaner to have 2 different API mapping to separate extended operations.
