This does not appear to be true.

The delete() method does not appear to accept a value, only an attribute
(or attributes). Attempting to specify one results in an execution error:

Can't use string ("directcustomer") as an ARRAY ref while "strict refs" in
use at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.005/Net/LDAP/Entry.pm line 179.

Using replace() does indeed replace all values, but I want to add/delete
specific values.

This appears to have zero effect, at least as far as the output from
write_cmd() is concerned.
