The standard requires the definition of a structural object class. As,
like inetorgperson, some structural object classes are part of a
object class chain some directories require all members of this object
class chain. OpenLDAP only requires the last object class of a chain,
so for OpenLDAP ist would be sufficiant to declare only inetorgperson
not even top but it does no harm to declare the full chain.
