-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Whaoh... This is deep into the server : we consider that because the 'ref'
attribute is operational ({{distributedOperation}} per RFC 3296), we don't
return the entry as a referal if the '+' is not injected into the search.
This is absolutely wrong.
There are many use cases to consider though :
* if the {{manageDSAIT}} control is present
** the entry will be returned as if it was not a referral, so all the
attributes will be filtered as it's done currently
* if the {{manageDSAIT}} control is not present
** if the entry is a referral, we return a {{SearchResultReference}}
** otherwise we proceed as it's done currently
I believe the only missing part is the handling of referrals when the
{{manageDSAIT}} control is not present.

> Key: DIRSERVER-2057
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-2057
> Project: Directory ApacheDS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M19
> Reporter: Stefan Seelmann
> Fix For: 2.0.0-M20
>
>
> If the search scope includes referral entries, then the server only converts
> them to search continuations if the search requested '+' or 'ref' attributes,
> otherwise the referral entry is returned.
> In 2.0.0-M14 this was different, even if only objectClass was requested by
> the client the referral object was converted to a search continuation.
> Unfortunately our tests don't cover this case.
> * SearchWithReferralsTest always requests * and +. ReferralSearchIT
> * ReferralSearchIT.testSearchContinuations() checks ReferralException but
> that catch block is never reached.
