It's more of a feature request. You can file it here:

The problem is that startTLS isn't something that is communicated in the
continuation reference, so you'd have to follow the referral manually to do
what you want.
There is no functionality in vt-ldap to do that and it's more likely to get
added for IDP 3.x.
