Providing that they are not marked as SINGLE-VALUE, it's OK, but you
still have to update all of them at once.

That is, if you change "cisco-avpair: blablabla2" to "blablabla2abc",
you will lose the others.

And I'm a little worried by the "cisco" reference; if you're using this
to store Cisco ACLs, there is *no* ordering implied.

Oh, and you need "cn: ted" to make that a proper entry.
