The modifiersName did not change, but its position had moved in output. In a diff-friendly format the position would not change. Obviously that could be done by sorting the output by attribute names (which would also help to locate a specific attribute), but it would have performance impacts, obviously.
I agree that some kind of "normalized" LDIF output format would be useful.
Not just for diffing, but also for storing LDIF objects, or entire trees, (including for example cn=config) in a version control system.
