In relation to this, I'm curious about ou/o vs. dc. We use uid=x, cn=accounts,dc=stanford,dc=edu for example, rather than uid=x, ??=accounts,ou=stanford,o=edu. What are the pros/cons? Is there a particular reason to use one syntax over the other?

If you use dc based naming then you can determine the location of referral servers through SRV records in the DNS.
