This is now planned for 3.4: <https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3521>

I fixed some issues in these patches and refined the API. Updated 
patches attached.

Also added a patch to use raw values when adding new entries and a patch 
which refines LDAPEntry.single_value, so that it is consistent with the 
rest of the changes introduced in the patches.

Patch 110 will probably be dropped in favor of Petr Viktorin's schema 
update patches, but I included it anyway.

Incidentally, this also fixes 
<https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3927> and possibly also 
<https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/2131>.
