Yes, there is: add the "don't use copy" control to the read request. If your client has write, then read requirements, using the chain overlay to avoid dealing with referrals is definitely a bad idea.
Ah... "don't use copy" is slapd 2.4. I forgot to say I'm on 2.3 - for now. Anyway... I thought that was the whole point of slapo-chain - to get automatic referral chasing.
It is. But if a client knows it's doing something weird (like write, then read, potentially to a consumer) then it needs to take precautions, like don't use copy. In that case, the consumer would return a referral, and slapo-chain would chase it transparently.
