In that case you would just need to directly operate on that via script and could skip the decoding step. Just don't pass it through and it should be fine.

Yes.

He's talking about wiring up objects out of Ldaptive with Spring, I think. That would be just writing new Java code to plug into the resolver, but that's more work than writing a 1-2 line script.
