LDAP value order

[Peter Gietz]

Just for the completenes, there was an attempt for value ordering in
LDAP (http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-chu-ldap-xordered-00) .
This has been implemented (by the author of the draft)  in OpenLDAP for
storing configuration information in the DIT.

But I don't think that this could be a solution for you, but might be
interesting reading anyway.

Best,

Peter G.
