Well, it's more a cosmetic issue... we have a user's ou field populated
with values in hierarchical order (so it's something like
[University,Institute,Department,Group]), and the mail field values are
in logical order (like [uid at domain,givenName.sn at domain]), and some other
fields contain values ordered by last change (i.e. last inserted).
Keeping the order from LDAP would result in a better understandable
overview of attributes e.g. in uApprove or in any other page which
displays attribute values.
