Maybe "manage" should be passed to slap_tool_entry_check(), and write tools (slapadd, slapmodify) could have an explicit '-o manage' option to enable handling of these cases.

I'd regard slapadd to be in kind of a manage mode by default. E.g. it does not check constraints. And as said OBSOLETE attribute types are already accepted.
