Re: removing global_schemacheck and SLAPD_LASTMOD flags

I am about to add some manage DIT capabilities and
rather not have to deal with the possibility that
these flags are FALSE.  Hence, I propose axing
these flags.  Comments?

I agree with global_schemacheck. Not sure which LASTMOD flag you're referring to, or what the problem there is.

re: schema checking, we currently disable it on backends for sparse replication reasons (proxycache, syncrepl). I think we could make this a little more granular; probably if we only skip the test for required attributes (to allow sparse/partial entries) everything else would still work.
