Well, I think the X- stuff is used for different purposes. It's for
schema definitions themselves. We are using X-IS-HUMAN-READABLE and
X-SCHEMA extensions in schema element definitions. But I may be
missing something here so I am not talking being sure.

Very interesting.

RFC4520 section 3.5 says:

   Options beginning with "x-" are for Private Use and cannot be
   registered.

So if ADS would accept such private options the user could define
his/her own options.
street;x-home
street;x-work
