Goodie, I was wondering how I would go about starting an RFC.  Seemed a
bit intimidating for such a simple thing as allowing an ordering
constraint :)

In the meantime I've hacked up a solution for us that adds locally
defined attributes that do include the ORDERING constraint to all local
account and groups objects which are generated from a database.  Now
people can put filters like this in their libnss-ldap.conf:
nss_base_group  ou=Group,o=Local?one?localGID>=1000

Thanks,
Brian
