I think in many cases it would be useful to have be_entry_get_rw() match
entries based on their class not only exactly, as now, but also if the
entry's class is subordinate to the one passed to be_entry_get_rw(). I
have a patch that adds a flag parameter for the objectClass value. In
most cases, to preserve the current behavior, the flag is set to 0;
however I believe in many cases where be_entry_get_rw() or be_fetch()
are used, it should definitely be set to SLAP_OCF_CHECK_SUP.
If there's no objection, and I didn't overlook anything serious, I'd
commit it.
