I think that having an identical notation for X.400 O/R addresses and
X.500 distinguished names would be disastrous.  Having two attribute
structured addresses is bad enough, and it is going to be hard to deal
with this, whatever decisions we make on conventions and notation.

I think that the different syntax will at least enable some distinction to 
be made.
