Do I understand correctly, that sbin/slapcat should also load initalize 
all modules from slapd config?

Great! I'll revert the changes about that and will mark those attributes 
obsolete. The OBSOLETE tag is not specified closer in manual. The RFC 
says it is an indicator. I think, the tag is _just_ an meta data in the 
schema and slapd will mostly ignore it, right?
