Ersin, See there is a use case for triggers on non-write operations :). This is a good example of that I think.

Current implementation of Triggers allow firing events upon change inducing operations only. Although we have modeled Triggers for all kind of operations they have not been implemented yet. > Can this be done ? Where should i start looking ? Has > it something to do with interceptors ?

You can simply implement this via Interceptors. All of ApacheDS services are based on Interceptors and for advanved needs Interceptors fit best. There are lots of examples in ApacheDS code to learn how to develop Interceptors.
