Hm, yes. A "Notice of Disconneciton" might work as well. But that would 
result in the client connection been taken down, which is probably not 
desired. For syncrepl connections from slapd-consumers this might be ok. 
But other LDAPSync clients might have other operations active on the same 
connection which wouldn't be affected by the removal of the syncprov 
overlay, I guess.

Returning an error just for the LDAPSync related Search seemed more 
logical to me.
