> Our ldap application has a custom partition and we only allow restricted searches on it.
> If the queries do not comply with our rules, we throw a NamingException.
> I guess good candidates for this are 
> - CannotProceedException
> - NoPermissionException
> The good news is that I even can provide the exception constructor with some extra information 
> that might help the searching user to adapt the query in order to succeed subsequently.
> Unfortunately, such exception explanation are ignored in SearchHandler.java and only 
>   "failed on search operation"
> is returned to the client
> Please find a diff below how this might be solved.
> Secondly, it would be great to be able to localize also the main error texts. Since our
> searches are only executed after a "bind" we do have the possibility to know the locale
> preferences from our own user-data-base.
> What do you think.
