Hi!

Oh well,
the typical (data) administrator is using some frontend that just shows 
objects'  attributes, and it may not be quite obvious which ones are "virtual": 
After all they (e.g. pwdPolicySubentry) are stored permanently in the database 
(and they are synced, fortunately).

Kind regards,
Ulrich Windl
