I agree, my schema (and data) are terrible. It's an artifact from
openldap not being as conforming as fds.

My main concern is that sanitizing my repository would require
changing usernames for a hundred odd external users, something I wish
to avoid. But given how memberUid's case sensitivity is nullified when
part of a dn, migration it is.

Thank you all for your help,
