Hi Luis,

   I don't think this is a great idea - it is usually the naming *value*
which identifies the entry.  Normally your tree would look like:

   ...
   |
   |_ cn=eric
   |_ cn=fred
   |_ cn=mary
   |_ cn= zoe

... if all we showed was the naming attribute, you'd end up with:
   ...
   |
   |_ cn
   |_ cn
   |_ cn
   |_ cn

which isn't very interesting!

*however*, JXplorer does distinguish between different naming attribute
types with the *icon* it displays - so if you have, say, both cn=fred and
o=fred in the same tree, you will get different icons displayed against the
two 'fred' entries.

Normally it is the naming value which tells you the identity of the 'thing'
in your tree - if you have multiple entries with the same naming value, and
this is a problem, maybe you should rename them?  It seems a bit unusual!

   cheers,

      Chris
