Jean-Marie Damas commented on DIRSTUDIO-946:
--------------------------------------------

That's not my use case. I'm a *developer*, not an admin. I use Apache DS to 
validate and test LDAP requests that will be executed with Talend (open source) 
tools in a batch execution environment.

Because it's about the same search, in term of business or functionality, but 
since I'm in development phase, I use only *one* search request at a time but 
with many combinations of attributes, adding and/or removing some of then, 
according to my development needs.
So it would be easier for me to have a GUI to see all of them and manage their 
consistency with more powerful mechanisms (save/load) than the actual small 
dropdown list.

With the solution of different searches, I would have to name the search with 
the attributes names (and I use plenty of them), witch is not useful.

Certainly my usage is a bit unusual ?

> In search GUI (and certainly in others screens), it would be useful to be 
> able to save (and so, further, reload) the commonly used attributes list.
> The actual drop-down list stores the precedent used lists but it isn't so 
> easy to use.
> For example, by creating an Attribute List Editor with buttons "Save" and 
> "Load" ?
