      UID was never a lable for uniqueIdentifier. However, LDAP and certain · d4704d52
      Richard Levitte authored
      RFCs concerning X.500 directories use UID as a shorter name for the
      attribute type userId, which is defined by CCITT and available through
      RFCs 1274 and 2247.
      
      Unfortunately, if some applications have used the name "UID" for the
      uniqueIdentifier attribute type, they will produce incorrect results.
      However, I found it better to follow the standards that are out there
      rather than having our own incompatible one.
