Writing LDIF change records is not well supported by module ldif. This really 
needs work.

You could try to sub-class LDIFWriter and extend/modify methods unparse() and 
_unparseChangeRecord().

BTW: In former times my idea was to implement a drop-in replacement for 
LDAPObject which simply writes LDIF instead of performing the LDAP operations. 
But I currently don't have the time for that.

Ciao, Michael.
