Hi,

This patch creates a new operator for sets : /- It allows to get the nth parent of all the elements of a set. For example, if user is cn=user,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com : user/-1 : resolves to set {ou=people,dc=example,dc=com} user/-2 : resolves to set {dc=example,dc=com} Of course it works the same for sets of more than 1 element.

It is very useful when ACLs depends on hierarchy.
