sorry, hit send by mistake.

do you know if is there any plans to implement this?
reading https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4533

it seems that server could send modifications:
"the server sends copies of entries that have changed with a Sync State
Control indicating state add"

but I'm not sure if I'm interpreting that right.
