Certain types of applications would like to be able to store their data in a single entry, but have that entry viewable by multiple DNs. This should work very similar to how hard links work in the file system. There is one file with one inode, but more than one name. You can read/write the file by an of the names. This is different than LDAP aliases because with aliases there is more than one entry - multiple alias entries and a single "real" entry.
Something like this would help freeipa automount map support
