This is pure nonsense, but it's short and I hope that it better
illustrates what I'm looking for. Any ideas?



From slapd.access(5)

       The  statement filter=<ldapfilter> selects the entries based on a
valid
       LDAP filter as described in RFC 4515.  A filter of
(objectClass=*) is
       implied if no filter form is given.

Take a look at:

<http://www.stanford.edu/services/directory/openldap/configuration/slapd-
acl.html>

There's a clear example of using an attribute value to filter access.
Blah, I was thinking this in the wrong direction. Sets are likely what you need. I think the syntax would be more 

by set.exact="user/title=telephonemanager" write
