So I think the idea of composing this with nsUsers/nsAccount is so that the
nsRoleFilter becomes:
&(objectClass=account)(cn=*)
This way it’s limited to just those types. Else we would have just
“nsFilteredRole” lib389 type (which could be simpler, given that this idea
seems to have caused so much confusion already … :( )
I still think it would be good to see a write of “how it works” by hand, where
you make the role, add the filter, show the roles on the users, then how that
translates to the lib389.
