I specified tls start below each target specification and did not find any
STARTTLS in the targets log, running at loglevel 256.

man slapd-meta says:
       tls {[try-]start|[try-]propagate}
              execute the StartTLS extended operation when the  connection  is
              initialized;  only works if the URI directive protocol scheme is
              not ldaps://.  propagate issues the StartTLS operation  only  if
              the  original  connection  did.   The  try- prefix instructs the
              proxy to continue operations if the StartTLS  operation  failed;
              its  use  is  highly  deprecated.   If  set  before  any  target
              specification, it affects all targets, unless overridden by  any
              per-target directive.

So it should work when set for a target.

I verified the behavior by removing start tls before any target specfication
and setting it below each target, which resulted in not STARTTLS being sent
again.
