That is a very nice proposal, it would sort of give us the good things
of both worlds.
IMHO schema is the only thing where cn=config makes life harder than
slapd.conf.
Being a long time lurker on this list it is fun to see that although
same subjects like config alternatives, turn up again and again, the
arguments and solution proposals at least sometimes do progress.

There was some talk, either in IRC or on -devel, of creating a way for
cn=config to reference schema files (possibly LDIF) on disk rather than
importing them into the config database. I think that would be an
improvement. Importing schemas into cn=config is cool - especially if
you
want to replicate the config - but I'm not sure it's a good default.
Since ordering is mandatory, it would be nice if you could just do
something like:
olcSchemaFile: {0}include: file://$ABS_SCHEMADIR/core.ldif
olcSchemaFile: {1}include: file://$ABS_SCHEMADIR/cosine.ldif
olcSchemaFile: {2}include: file://$ABS_SCHEMADIR/inetorgperson.ldif
etc. Then you could change the schema files on disk, and cn=config
would just load them in when it started. It'd certainly make the
behavior analagous to slapd.conf, and allow for easier rollback/testing.
