The fiddling starts with the decision of the desired frontend software.
Evolution, Thunderbird, Outlook - they all want different schemata.
There seems to be a kind of common sense, but contact forms showing lots
of greyed out fields don't have advertising appeal.

I for myself settled on evolutionperson.schema, but I wouldn't expect
that to be extremely useful with applications other than Evolution.

There is a nice analysis of Outlook's and Thunderbird's LDAP features:
