Come to think of it, one disadvantage of ignoring '-' and '_' rather than treating them as the same: It somewhat increases the chance of name clashes with option names in overlays.

Yepp. The parameter's prefix should be prepended with a separator (either by hyphen or underscore). Otherwise one has to maintain a prefix code.

True for now, but I expect this sort of consideration to be less important going forward, as we emphasize cn=config and deprecate slapd.conf.
