If this documents current practise the migration is not that smooth for
non-quipu users. To get access to some of the Cosine + Internet schema
attributes (friendlyCountry, audio, ...) I (as a non-quipu user) still need
to know about the old quipu-specific OIDs. I request the attribute with its
new OID, I get the value tagged with the old OID. Maybe this just needs the
order of OIDs to be reversed in the quipu attribute tables, but then I 
suppose you'd keep out quipu users that haven't upgraded.
