google search: "attribute tags" site:openldap.org returns 4 hits, none to documentation.  Can you point me towards a document that describes how to use attribute tags?

If I had a multi-valued attribute like
cn: var0:value
cn: var2:value
cn: var3:value

I think you're looking for the valsort overlay.  Read the man page for
slapo-valsort

If each of those are just arbitrary tags, and not for ordering purposes,
then just using an attribute tag might be the better option.

cn;var0: value
cn;var2: value
cn;var3: value

regarding LDAP and tags I only found this RFC:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3866

But it is about languages tags only. Section 1.3 speaks about "cn;x-bar", so
this is for arbitrary tags?
Is this what you meant or can you point me to something else?

RFC 4512 Section 2.5.2.
