Right (except that I want it to be (PHP_)ldap_sort (maybe
(PHP_)ldap_sort_entries). Think I'll implement it without that last
parameter, at least at first. I still think callback could be useful,
but that's also we can add later if necessary. Have you seen
ldap_sort_entries() implementations that allow multiple attributes? I
haven't seen that yet. I also see that at least OpenLDAP and Netscape
allow sorting on DN if attribute is NULL, I guess we could let empty
string do that.

Oops, too early in the morning. I'll try to implement it this way, it's
the best PHP API I think (except that I drop the 4th parameter, at least
for now).
